About Vancouver Seawall
The Vancouver Seawall is a continuous waterfront promenade that links many of the city’s top sights and outdoor spaces. Running along Stanley Park and then around False Creek and English Bay, the Seawall offers mostly flat, paved surfaces suitable for all abilities and a memorable way to experience Vancouver’s skyline and harbor.
Along the route you’ll pass beaches, marinas, gardens and public art, and there are frequent benches and viewpoints for photography or sunset-watching. The path is popular with cyclists, runners and families—rent a bike to cover more ground and stop at Granville Island, English Bay or the park attractions.
