About This Tour
See Vancouver the way it is best seen – by water – during this 3-hour tour in a Zodiac inflatable boat. Beginning at Granville Island, you'll cross False Creek and follow the coastline through Stanley Park.
Learn about Vancouver's waterfront landmarks like English Bay, Stanley Park, and Vancouver Harbour. Travel through Deep Cove and the Indian Arm, a glacial fjord with a backdrop of steep granite cliffs that can only be seen by boat, and spot wildlife like seals, bald-eagles and jellyfish colonies along the way in our most nature-immersive tour!
