More infoThe Gulf of Georgia Cannery is a proper 1894 building on the Steveston waterfront that canned salmon by the millions, then simply stopped, leaving the giant clattering line machinery behind for you to walk past on original plank floors. Admission is modest, and free in summer under the Canada Strong Pass. Afterward, split fish and chips with your feet hanging over the Fraser.
Walk the plank floors of this 1894 cannery past the giant, clattering line machinery, modest admission, and free in summer under the Canada Strong Pass, for a vivid hit of the coast's fishing story. Give it about 90 minutes, then make a loop of it: stroll the Steveston boardwalk, watch boats sell straight off the dock, and split fish and chips with your feet hanging over the Fraser.
