My favorite thing to do in Stanley Park is either walk or bike the Seawall. There is a lot of bike rental places close by where you can rent your bike for the day. Alternatively you can chill at third beach, my favorite of all beaches in the park.

Stanley Park in Vancouver is a magnificent green oasis and the first, largest, and most beloved urban park in the city. This 400-hectare oasis consists of a natural West Coast rainforest with amazing views of English Bay, mountains, sky, and trees along Stanley Park’s well-known Seawall. There is plenty to do there, including cycling the 8.8km seawall, exploring over 27km of trails, marvelling at the totem poles, meeting our local residents, or visiting one of the park's many landmarks such as the Aquarium, Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Chinese Garden, vanDusen Botanical Garden, Bloedel Conservatory, Queen Elizabeth Park, and Hastings Park. Stanley Park offers activities for visitors of all age and interests!
