Stanley Park isn’t just a park – it’s a 1,000-acre wonderland where towering cedars, curious raccoons, and ocean breezes collide. Whether you’re biking the world-famous Seawall, exploring hidden forest trails, or saying hi to the sea otters at the Vancouver Aquarium, every corner brings a new adventure. Think of it as Vancouver’s natural heartbeat – equal parts rainforest, coastline, and pure Pacific Northwest magic. Don’t forget your camera (or your appetite – there’s ice cream by the beach)!
There’s no shortage of things to do in Stanley Park – start with a scenic bike or stroll around the iconic 9-kilometre Seawall, offering stunning views of the city, mountains, and ocean. Explore the lush interior trails where you’ll find massive trees, tranquil ponds, and the charming Lost Lagoon. Visit the Vancouver Aquarium to meet playful sea otters and jellyfish or stop by the Totem Poles at Brockton Point for a glimpse into Indigenous culture. Families will love the Miniature Train and the splash park at Second Beach, while nature lovers can spot wildlife or relax at Beaver Lake. When hunger strikes, grab a bite at the Teahouse or enjoy a beachside picnic. Stanley Park is a choose-your-own-adventure kind of place!
