Explore Vancouver Your Way

The great outdoors is just out your door

Mountains. Oceans. Rainforests. Here, you don’t just see the outdoors, you feel it. Kayak through the calm waters and snowcapped mountains of Deep Cove or live like a local and take a cold plunge in English Bay. Trade open water for urban ice withan afternoon of ice-skating at Robson Square or North Vancouver’s Shipyard Skate Plaza.

Conquer mountains, oceans and menus

Experience a selection of MICHELIN Star restaurants as amazing as the mountain views around them. Enjoy the freshest local flavours at Published on Main, seasonally inspired cuisine at AnneLena, or a theatrical Omakase experience at OkeyaKyujiro. Check out the full MICHELIN Guide to see all of Vancouver’s top-rated restaurants.

Explore an enchanting coastal rainforest.

Visit Capilano Suspension Bridge Park and cross the legendary bridge that hangs 70 metres above the Capilano River…and that’s just the beginning. Experience the calm and mystery of this amazing rainforest eco-system as you traverse the gravity-defying Cliffwalk or explore the towering canopy on the Treetops Adventure. For a little extra magic, visit at night for the forest lights experience.

Refresh with the whole family

In Vancouver, there’s something for everyone. Take your family on an underwater adventure at the Vancouver Aquarium or soar across the country with Flyover. Once you're back on solid ground, enjoy a delicious dinner with breathtaking views at the Vancouver Lookout or wrap up your evening with some night skiing at Grouse Mountain.

Discover a unique blend of cultures.

We’re not defined by one culture, but by the diverse mix of cultures that coexist and collide to create our city’s dynamic nooks and neighbourhoods. Discover the traditions of the Coast Salish Peoples on a guided nature walk, check out the city's LGBTIQA+ hub, or explore the restaurants and hideaways of historic Chinatown. If you’re looking for culture, we have plenty of places to find it.
