Vancouver Science World City Boat Tour · 2-Star Select Class

From the boat you’ll glide through Coal Harbour, passing marinas filled with yachts and seaplanes, with downtown Vancouver’s glass towers and the North Shore mountains creating a dramatic backdrop for photos.

You’ll sail past Canada Place and its iconic white “sails,” seeing the cruise ship terminal, convention centre, and working harbour from the water while your captain points out key landmarks along the waterfront.

Cruising along the edge of Stanley Park, you’ll see the forested seawall, rocky shoreline, and park trails from a unique on-water angle, enjoying how close the city sits to nature.

The boat takes you beneath the green span of Lions Gate Bridge, offering classic postcard views of the bridge, harbour, and mountains, with plenty of chances to capture photos as you pass under it.

Out on English Bay you’ll experience open water, city beaches, and the West End skyline, a scenic stretch where you can relax, feel the sea breeze, and enjoy wide views toward the Pacific.

As we enter False Creek, you’ll cruise past marinas, floating homes, and waterfront condos, seeing busy city life, bridges, and stadiums from a calm, protected inner waterway.

From the water you’ll pass the Granville Island area, viewing the public market, houseboats, marinas, and artist studios tucked under the Granville Street Bridge, all from a close but crowd-free vantage point.

At the end of False Creek you’ll come right up to Science World’s geodesic dome, with BC Place and the city skyline around it, and the captain will slow the boat so you can enjoy and photograph this iconic scene.
