Vancouver showing off everything it has in one gloriously flat, car-free, 10 km loop where the ocean is the only map you need.
Some dates require reservations; this one requires laces and about three hours of not checking your phone. The Stanley Park Seawall is Vancouver doing its maximum showing-off: a 10 km flat, car-free loop where the ocean is your only navigation aid and the whole route is basically a highlight reel. You will stop at the totem poles at Brockton Point, crane up at the freighters drifting under Lions Gate Bridge, and find Siwash Rock standing offshore looking entirely too pleased with itself. Allow 2.5 to 3 hours of genuine dawdling, or peel off early for English Bay and an ice cream when your legs want a reason. It is completely free and open dawn to dusk, which is almost offensively good value. Just go earlier or later on sunny weekends, unless your idea of romance involves being overtaken by a dozen strangers on rented bikes.
