We rented bikes from Spokes and rode around the seawall. It was a great afternoon and we got to take in all the sights - including giant woodpeckers, a family of raccoons and giant purple starfish. What a great public park! more

This huge park is great for everyone. We rode the trolley for a while, then walked on the trails to Beaver Lake, had fish n chips & delicious ice cream at Prospect Point. You can ride bikes/rollerblade along the seawall. A walk next to Lost Lagoon is beautiful. There's a heated outdoor pool & the gardens are very pretty. The... more

Review: stanley park is a one way road around the whole park. there are a lot of parking lots throughout the park where you can get out and walk around. it's a good idea to pick up a guide ahead of time if you haven't been there before. it just lets you know what's where and how to get to... more

My family is wimps when it comes to physical activities, but we rented bikes and rode around the sea wall twice. Everyone enjoyed it, and the views are beautiful. There are no hills, and the breeze off of the ocean makes it very cool, so it was a nice time. We took a horse drawn carriage tour, and it was... more

Rent bikes and explore the island! There is so much here. Our family enjoyed watching our first cricket match, visited the Vancouver aquarium, visited the petting zoo, rode the miniature train, and enjoyed the beautiful island and the incredible views it offers. We stayed downtown at the Ramada and it was a straight shot down to the island. It was... more

Stanley Park is on par with other great urban parks like Central Park in New York and Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. The free shuttle is a good way to get an overview of the park. The views are amazing. We have a two year old and she loved the playground, and the walkways. My wife liked the Fish... more

I went to Stanley Park three times during my week-long visit. We explored on foot and the interior pedestrian-only paths one day, then went back two times to bicycle the gorgeous, waterfront perimeter. Easy bicycling, but go early to avoid the crowds. You can rent bicycles at Spokes (and other locations) just outside the park. Spectacular vistas, you may even... more

I must say I love Stanley Park. Walking or cycling the seawall around the park is great exercise with a view. Then continue on down the beaches, English Bay is the best downtown beach. Second beach has the great pool. Kits beach is the best near downtown though. You can visit the Aquarium, eat at a few good restaurants, see... more

Wow. I have been to many parks around the world but none are so great as Stanley Park. For starters, The Seawall is amazing! Take your bicycle, rolerblades or just hike it. It is along the shore line and every inch there is something to be be seen. Ever seen a seagull dive in the ocean and come out with... more
