ancouver is virtually an island oasis surrounded by inlets, bays and rivers that all flow
into the Pacific Ocean. Even downtown with its glittering glass towers is framed by
sandy beaches, urban forests and a ring of walking and cycling paths that offer easy
access to the water. Stroll the seawall, perch on a bridge or put your toes in the sand and watch
the scene of stand-up paddlers, sailors and kayakers dri by. Join them and explore Vancouver
by water. By Janet Gyenes
