Vancouver Experiences
Vancouver has its own unique atmosphere - a clean, modern city framed by the ocean and the mountains, with a strong Asian influence you'll taste in its food and see in its historic Chinatown. There's no shortage of things to do, from rainforest parks and waterfront walks to the Capilano Suspension Bridge. As a natural start or end to a Canada golf holiday, it's certainly a city you'll enjoy spending a couple of nights in.
Exploring Vancouver
A short stroll from downtown, Stanley Park is a massive urban park, where you can explore a fantastic range of walking trails or visit the park's lovely gardens. For a long afternoon walk or a scenic bike ride, head to the Seawall, a 28km long waterfront path with sweeping views of the harbour, mountains and skyline.
If you have an morning or afternoon spare, hop on a shuttle from downtown Vancouver and head across the water to Capilano Suspension Bridge in North Vancouver. The bridge sways high above the Capilano river and leads to the Treetops Adventure area, a series of smaller strung bridges strung between the trees.
Gastown is all cobblestone streets and Victorian buildings, steeped in history and home to some of Vancouver's very best food, shopping and nightlife.
Golf in British Columbia
Whether you're at the beginning or coming to the end of your golf trip, the roads out of Vancouver lead to some of the best golf in British Columbia - from mountain courses in Whistler to the lakes and vineyards of the Okanagan Valley.
Whistler is home to a brilliant line up of golf, including the Nicklaus North Golf Course, the Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club and Whistler Golf Club. And with Big Sky Golf Club a short drive away, you'll have plenty to choose from.
