| The Sea Wall of Vancouver is a very popular area
for tourists and locals alike. It extends from the Canada Place Pier westwards
around Stanley Park past English Bay Beach and eastwards in to the
False Creek area. After False Creek the
Sea Wall continues past Granville Island and on to its south-west termination
point at Kitsilano Beach, the actual seawall ends near Granville Island but
continues into the Vanier Park/Kitsilano Beach area as a gravel walking/bike
path. |

Starting near Canada
Place the seawall passes along the Coal Harbour shoreline into Stanley Park.
Brockton Point is a popular stop to take in the views of the North Shore
Mountains, Lions Gate Bridge and downtown Vancouver. After going around Stanley
Park (about 10 Kilometers) it passes the English Bay Beach area of the West
End. |

| Sunset Beach is next, just west of the Burrard
Street Bridge. Next, after passing under the bridge, is the False Creek area.
This area has become the main hub of activity in Vancouver. Yaletown, Granville
Island, parks, and many marinas. Outdoor activities abound in this
area. |
