    We hired e-bikes and rode around the Stanley Park sea wall cycle route . This is only for bikes, we were lucky to go when there were not many other cyclists as it could become a log jam if all the bikes on offer were hired!!
    Nice views around the sea wall, glad we did it.

    Granville island is a great way to spend an afternoon, particularly if you are looking for good eats and unique finds! So many small shops with clothes, glass, pottery, maple products, salts, etc. on the way to the market and inside. Lots of food choices with seating mostly outside to enjoy it. Plan on 2-3 hours to stroll through the shops surrounding the market and then grab some lunch inside. Highly recommend.

    We really enjoyed the visit to the Aquarium. It was easy to find, entry easy and an interesting visit.
    Staff talks were interesting and informative. We particularly enjoyed the sea otters and jellyfish. Nice that the mammals were rescued injured creatures being looked after and trained in captivity.

    The Vancouver Seawall is a wall built around the waters of Vancouver to prevent erosion. We followed the wall by walking around Stanley Park. It is a calming way to get fit and enjoy the beautiful natural wonders of the area.

    Fab way to cross the river, hop on and off, and marvel at the sights on both shores too. Very easy to use and other passengers are very helpful

    Great area to walk around and shop with lots of restaurants and a nice brewery. We enjoyed spending time wandering through the area and stopped for a couple drinks.

    While on the small size as far as Museums go The Vancouver Museum of Anthropology does have it's merits. It is a good rainy day activity when visiting Vancouver. It is also easy to get to, transportation wise. While not a must see, if you visit it does have it's merits.

    We started a long day out in Vancouver here, lingering to watch the cruise ships dock in anticipation of our embarkation a few days later. It's certainly an impressive place, with a few coffee shops etc and lovely views out over the water
