Belcarra, British Columbia is a small community on the shore of Burrard Inlet, and is part of the Greater Vancouver Regional District. It lies northwest of Port Moody and immediately east of the Deep Cove area of North Vancouver, across the waters of Indian Arm. Isolated by geography on a narrow peninsula, Belcarra is accessible by a single winding paved road or by water. It is largely a residential bedroom community for Vancouver and its suburbs. Belcarra is the only community in this area that is not growing substantially. Even neighbouring Anmore, another tiny community has grown and changed, but Belcarra has not. Ralph Drew has won the last two municipal elections by acclamation and retained his mayorship. Many residents in Belcarra have boats and even houses that are not on the water are sometimes able to procure a shared dock. Belcarra is home to Belcarra Regional Park
