Departing from Granville Island, this private yacht cruise begins with a relaxed journey through False Creek, one of Vancouver’s most vibrant waterfront areas. Along the way, guests enjoy views of Olympic Village, the Plaza of Nations, BC Place, and the iconic Science World before passing under Vancouver’s impressive bridges and continuing toward English Bay. Here, the horizon opens up with large ocean-going ships waiting to enter the Port of Vancouver, while guests take in sweeping views of the city skyline on one side and the North Shore mountains on the other, with Vancouver Island visible to the west on clear days. The cruise then continues past some of Vancouver’s beautiful beaches before returning along the waterfront to Granville Island.

Departing from Granville Island, this cruise begins with the same scenic route as the shorter city cruise through False Creek. Along the way we pass many of Vancouver’s most recognizable waterfront landmarks—Olympic Village, the Plaza of Nations, BC Place, and Science World— cruising under the city’s bridges and continuing out toward the open waters of English Bay.
From there, the yacht continues around the shoreline of Stanley Park, offering beautiful views of the forested coastline from the water before passing beneath the iconic Lions Gate Bridge. We then enter Coal Harbour, where guests can cruise alongside the large cruise ships docked near Canada Place and watch seaplanes gracefully take off and land on the harbour. If time permits, the journey may continue across the harbour to North Vancouver’s Lonsdale Quay, where one of the best panoramic views of Canada Place and the Vancouver skyline awaits. The return journey circles back around Stanley Park and along Vancouver’s beaches before heading back into False Creek and returning to Granville Island.
