Parks & Nature
The iconic Stanley Park is a must see for visitors to Vancouver. I love to walk the 11km seawall where you can watch ships and seaplanes coming and going and if you pay attention, you'll see a seal. If you have a car, the drive around the park is beautiful, with many points to stop and explore. There are three beaches in the park if you feel like just soaking up the sun and listening to the waves.

It's not a challenging hike down to the lighthouse where you clamber over boulders to sit and soak up the views. You will only find locals here.

Vancouver has over 18 kms of beaches and each one has its own distinctive personality. If you want "clothing optional", then Wreck Beach is for you. If you're more into the singles scene, then Kitsilano beach is perfect. You can watching people crabbing from the pier at Jericho. But Spanish Banks is our favourite as the tides go way out which is fabulous for walking. When the tide comes back in over the warm sand, it heats up the water making for ideal swimming conditions.

A free alternative to Capilano Suspension Bridge, Lynn Canyon has its own, smaller suspension bridge. There are trails throughout, with a highlight being the 30 foot pool. Here you will watch brave (or stupid) souls jump from cliffs into the freezing cold water. Be careful in this park and do not go out of bounds as people have lost their lives.

One of our favourite winter activities is snowshoeing on Mount Seymour. You can be up snowshoeing through a winter wonderland in less than an hour. Snow shoe rentals are $27. You can choose to purchase a day pass for their trails at $9.50 or we prefer the free trail to Dog Mountain which comes out at a bluff overlooking the city. If it's raining in the city, you know it's snowing on the mountain.

Sightseeing
Bowen Island makes a great day trip. A 20 minute ferry ride from Horseshoe Bay you get an ocean voyage and a quaint village all thrown into one. Have lunch in Snug Cove, explore the shops and then wander some of their trails. Check out www.tourismbowenisland.com

If you're adventurous and looking for a good work out, hike up the Sea to Summit Trail which is 7.5 km (918 m elevation gain) and takes around 3 hours. This is considered an immediate/advanced trail. Or take the gondola up and explore hiking trails from there. Or don't hike at all but enjoy the most incredible views.

This is similar to Soaring Over California if you've been to Disneyland. It's a great introduction to Canada and a really enjoyable experience. My only criticism is it's too short! Tickets $27 in person or $23 online.
