Seawall Water Walk

Nice views of the Burrard Inlet from a water side sea wall. There are lots of benches, green spaces and nice places to enjoy. My wife and I loved the time we spent here and will return again.

The Vancouver Seawall is the world’s longest uninterrupted waterfront path, stretching over 28 kilometers around the city’s shoreline. Popular with walkers, runners, and cyclists, it offers stunning views of the ocean, mountains, Stanley Park, and the downtown skyline. It’s both a recreational space and a scenic way to explore Vancouver’s natural beauty year-round.

One of, if not the most, famous seaside walkway in the world. Great for a walk, run, bike ride, or just chilling around the variety of parks spanning along it. It wraps around the entirety of Vancouver and then some, so make it a goal to walk around the entirety of it as a local or tourist!

You get stunning views of the water, the city skyline, and the mountains all in one walk. The path is wide, well-maintained, and easy for all ages—great for walking, jogging, cycling, or just strolling with a coffee. There are plenty of spots to stop, sit, and take photos or just relax and enjoy the view.

Lovely trail for a quick ride through a very scenic route. You should go early if you want to take pictures as it's a popular route.

Very attractive views all along the walk.

Great experience! Chose to rent bikes from spokes bike rental right across the street ($12/hr) and then proceeded to ride the full loop. Went on a Monday in August and it was pretty busy, but not overwhelmingly so. Parking was $8.50 for two hours. There are two separate parallel paths one for bikes and one for walkers. There were bikers, rollerbladers, skaters, and scooters. The weather was great and the views were even greater. It went from a harbour type view, to ocean, to beach and ocean, to lake, to city. It was pretty cool. Total loop was around 6 miles for me (the official site says 7) but maybe I just started at a weird point. Finished it in around 45 minutes and that included frequent stops for pictures. There are plenty of benches and stopping points for pictures, including a pretty well kept beach and a huge pool towards the the end! All in all would highly recommend if you’re looking for something active to do in the Vancouver area.

A flat, circular trail over the water with stunning viewpoints along the way. Perfect for walking or running. Quiet and peaceful.
