From the Water with
Vancouver Water Adventures

With departures right from Granville Island, guests can set off on guided boat tours, hop on a Sea-Doo, or paddle out on a kayak or stand-up paddleboard. Each experience showcases the best of Vancouver’s waterfront, from sparkling city views and temperate rainforests to rugged cliffs, hidden waterfalls, and coastal wildlife.

One of the most sought-after experiences is the Granite Falls Tour, a scenic boat adventure through the dramatic fjord of Indian Arm. You will travel past deep coastal rainforest, glacial waterfalls, and historic sites on this unforgettable journey through one of BC’s most stunning natural areas. It's the perfect blend of adventure and serenity, and a guest favorite year after year.

Another standout is the UNESCO Biosphere and Bowen Island Tour, which explores the ecologically significant waters and marine life of the Howe Sound Biosphere Region. You will get up close to harbor seals, eagles, and pristine coastlines before enjoying a relaxing break on charming Bowen Island, where a complimentary drink or snack of choice is included. It’s the ideal half-day escape for those wanting nature, local flavor, and a touch of indulgence.

For those craving adrenaline, Jet Ski Tours to Bowen Island offer a thrilling way to zip across the ocean. With ample opportunities for photos, snacks, and even a stop on the island, these guided tours offer a high-speed adventure combined with jaw-dropping views.

Celebrating its 16th season on the water, Vancouver Water Adventures continues to lead the way with experiences that are locally rooted, sustainability-minded, and packed with personality. Whether you're a visitor or a proud local, exploring Vancouver by water is a must-do experience.
