Seawall Water Walk — Attraction in Vancouver

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.

On the other side there are the tall residential buildings and swanky five star hotels set amidst gardens of bright green grass and trees. We enjoyed our mile long walk from Devonian Harbour Park all the way to Canada Place along...
