Parks & Nature
Because Stanley Park holds the title as one of the world’s best city parks, its uniqueness to Vancouver is not overrated. With 500,000 trees, an expansive seawall, stunning views, beaches, trails and entertainment, Stanley Park is the best bet for visitors wanting a taste of Vancouver’s beauty. There is nowhere else in the city one could go to enjoy a day at the beach, play a round of golf, catch an evening musical and take a 6 km walk by the water all in one day.
Rent a bicycle from Georgia St + Denman St, and take a ride along the seawall.

Sightseeing
Granville Island is a shopping destination unique to Vancouver due to its abundance of artisan, locally-made and hand-crafted products and foods. It is also an arts and culture hub with numerous theatres, galleries and artist shops. The Public Market offers a wide selection of delicious food, including fresh produce, ready-made meals, meats, fish and more. Many water sports can also be arranged from Granville Island, such as boat rentals, paddle boarding and kayaking. Visitors can wander around the “island” and spend hours popping in and out of shops. For dinner, Bridges or Sandbar have great patios and some quality food.

Unique to Vancouver: While not technically in Vancouver, the one hour drive to Squamish to see the Sea to Sky Gondola is definitely worth the distance, especially if a trip to Whistler is out of the question. The eight-minute gondola ride takes visitors to the top of The Chief mountain where views are incredible from literally every angle. Once at the summit, there are networks of trails for hiking, backcountry access, a suspension bridge and the brand-new Via Ferra

While the Suspension Bridge does offer some pretty cool views of some pretty tall trees, you don’t need to pay almost $40 a person to see these in Vancouver. A short drive up the hill from the park to the Cleveland Dam will take you into Capilano Canyon by foot for hours of easy to difficult trails among some of the West Coast’s most majestic sky scrapers (see Lynn Canyon). If it’s the bridge experience you’re after, the Suspension Bridge is the longest in the area at 450 ft., and the park also includes the new CLIFFWALK and Treetops Adventure for even more views. For a smaller thrill, however, y
