Reviews of Vanier Park (Park)

Pascal Cote

We went there two times during our 10 day trip, the park is simply gorgeous. There's plenty of activities nearby, beaches to go swim and a lot of trail and sidewalks to stroll around and enjoy the seaside.

Lots of wide open space for kids to run around... as well as waterfront access. Places to visit near by as well as a small parking lot with pay parking.. Worth a trip.

Nerdmaid Faith

Cool place to watch dogs

John van Bockxmeer

Stunning views over the city of vancouver. Love the options within the park including bard on the beach in summer.

Alphonsus To

Super awesome off leash dog park here. There's an area for her to swim in the ocean too! My dog gives this park two paws up!

Jay Hussein (Jayzakh)

Came here in July and it was a nice place with sculptures with jogging trails. But then again, that's all there is. For being on a road trip, you try to come to the best kind of places since you are short on time. Besides the cool square frame looking sculpture. there are nothing really that is super amazing. By the way there is barely any shade on the walkway around the park so keep in mind that you will have to deal with the glaring sun. If you live here, I can see the appeal but if you are here for visiting, better to go elsewhere.

Ken Smith

Quiet family spot.

Reza Shah Abadi

A beautiful view of bay and north shore . We were there for a nice Kite Festival in June 11, 2016.

Great park good views, I came here with some friends and there was a bunch of goose poop, but it didn’t take away from how nice it was to be there and how blessed I felt to experience this with my friends. It’s not the destination folks it’s the journey, and the journey I had here was absolutely 10/10

Robbie the Realtor

This is a great park if you want to see the downtown & Northshore Cityscapes. Many IG Influencers come here for the backdrop. There is a dog beach, beaver pond, bald eagles nests, a BMX dirt park, and you can catch the aquabus too! It's great for families, dates, and BBQs with friends. You can check out the Maritime Museum and Observatory, or stroll over to Kits beach or Cornwall for kitsilano restaurants. All-in-all a great place for a walk around the seawall.

Marcel Déziel

The performance was great and the actress and actors was really good.

Vivian

It's a park, they do have a theater operating there.

Doug Walker

A great venue for Bard on The Beach

Steve Whalley

Great for a walk or ride during the day or early evening. I go anytime I please, there are no restrictions or closures that I have ever seen. It's safe and on some quiet early mornings when the Bay is still at slack tide, the walk can be very Majestic. Please "Like" to show me I am making a difference. Thx

Wesley Jenkins

Ok

Not very busy. A lot to do near by. Perfect picnic spot for a large group!

Ava Hall

I love it here! It's a lovely huge park, great for bringing dogs and small children. There's a whole beach dedicated for doggies to play at! The Maritime Museum, The HRR McMillan Space Center, and the MOV all are in this park! It's a must see for all tourists in Vancouver. You can catch a water taxi across to Downtown from Vanier Park. My only complaint is the goose poop, look out for that! Geese love the park just as much as we do, so watch out!

Alipheese

Beautiful place, just beware of duck poop.

Yours Fasy

Boring place

Ron Hatch

Beautiful views of city and mountains, small and usually pretty quiet beach, lots of green space and nearby parking. Location is right near the Maritime Museum, Museum of Vancouver, Space Centre and Vancouver Academy of Music.

Good bike path. There is a ramp to lower and lift your boat onto your car. There are also coast guards so safety is great. Downside is that there are duck poop on the docks.

My husband and I have been going to the estuary behind the planetarium and feeding the ducks/geese for the last year and a half, I was afraid of Canada geese, until last spring when 2 families began to come for food, now I enjoy seeing the babies, whom are not longer babies!! Highly recommend this place in the summer as u might get lucky enough to see the massive beaver. Here are some pics of the geese

Jamie Reynolds (Jascrey)

Beautifully situated on Kits Point in Vancouver and home to the Bard on the Beach Shakespearian festival in the summers. This park has breathtaking views of Vancouver's North Shore across the waters of the entrance to Vancouver Harbour and Burrard Inlet.

John Busswood

Anywhere on Vancouver's waterfront deserves 5 stars!

David Hu

Good place to see the firework

Agatha Alokeli

Space center

Sandy Caster

there is street parking there, but it might be pay parking. they got that nasa or space center there and a lot of shows running out of that area, like hamlet and romeo and juliet as well as fire works in the summer. it is called a museum and i saw special buses dropping off exchange students there and food trucks catering there. i took the bus myself, the number 2 mcdonald bus and it went over the burrard street bridge. then i got off at the juliet cafe and walked down that street there until i saw the space center and the castles behind it. there is also cones there. and a nice place to picnic.

Corbin Lowe

Great park! A very nice place to watch the sunset. Now if only we can get the geese to stop popping everywhere

I like the benches and gravel trail near the seawall. The lake near the H. R. MacMillan Space Centre is great for observing bird and relaxing

jeff spence

Each September there is a cyclocross race on the foreshore and around the pond. The backdrop of Vancouver and the mountains eases the pain and suffering of the racing.

Matt Oviatt

Great open park overlooking the water. Bard on the beach takes over a lot of it in the spring through fall, but that's a great experience as well. Highly recommend

Donna Henning

Great walk, wonderful views.

Recy Cazarotto

(Translated) Most beautiful park in life <3 it is huge and has several different structures and activities. It is necessary to devote an entire day to the place without fear. It has a large aquarium with a gift shop, a gymnasium, the waterfront is beautiful and it is possible to go down at different points in mini-beaches. The sunset is surreal, beautiful. There you can also see the famous totems. The ideal is to go out while the sun is setting because of the light, many places do not have adequate electric light precisely because it is a park, and it is very easy to get lost inside in the dark, especially those who do not know the place. Recommended activity. (Original) Parque mais bonito da vida <3 ele é imenso e conta com diversas estruturas e atividades diferentes. É preciso dedicar sem medo um dia inteiro ao local. Conta com um grande aquário com loja de presentes, um campo ginásio, a orla é linda e é possível descer em diversos pontos em mini-prainhas. O por do sol é surreal de lindo. Lá também é possível ver os famosos totens. O ideal é sair enquanto o sol está se pondo por conta da luz, muitos lugares não contam com luz elétrica adequada justamente por ser um parque, e é muito fácil se perder lá dentro no escuro, principalmente quem não conhece o local. Atividade recomendadisssima.

Jay Townsend

Went to the space museum, nice museum with a lot of interesting facts about the Canadian space program and it's many contributions to the international space station and space travel in general. Nice park, wish we would have had more time to see more of the park overall. Beautiful area with waterfront views.

Ted Miller

Beautiful and perfect for everybody

Doc Parker

Very Pretty

There is a boat launch dark here where are you can launch your boat into English Bay. What most people don’t know is that you can have a small barbecue on any part of the grass areas While having a great view of the boat passing by

Terzah Horton

Great views of the Harbor. The running trail becomes sand/gravel which is very easy to run on. Trail through the park has many interesting things to look at in adoption to the boats.

This park is magical

Ivonne Vargas

Love the view!

Aria Thompson

Great place to spend the day or go for a bike ride

Andy Aras

Awesome views of the mountains and downtown Vancouver from here. A short walk from Granville Island. Big, open park next to the ocean. Fun to watch people fly their kites here. Watch out for Canada geese droppings when wandering on the grass... At least if you step in it, it doesn't stink!

Adam Jackson

Bard on the beach, a definite place too see a great play old English style but in a western setting. Wonderful performance by the actors, all in a big tent settings and seating is good. Not the best but good. Go buy some goodies and the food station and enjoy this past week was "Taming of the Shrew" definitely worth the money to enjoy.

Vanier Park & Hadden Park - Vancouver Vanier Park and Hadden Park are located next to each other at Kits Point in the neighbourhood of Kitsilano in Vancouver. In these parks are located the Museum of Vancouver (MOV), H.R. McMillan Space Centre, the Vancouver Maritime Museum, The City of Vancouver Archives, The Vancouver Academy of Music, a BMX bike park, and a couple of bald eagles (The Kitsilano Eagles) who nest on a tree by the Burrard Civic Marina. Some of the festivals held at this park are Bard on the Beach Shakespeare Festival and the Vancouver Pink Salmon Festival.

Shruty Reddy

Loved the fireworks ????

robert de Groot

As far as did in the park .i have no problem

Nigel Kellett

Great views!!! Can be a tad windy and the path can get crowded. Geese love the grass so watch where you step

Reuben DeVries

Amazing, beautiful, my wife and I visit to see bard on the beach summer highlight!

Larry Turzynski

Incredible view of the sunset!

Josh

**This rating is about the public boat launch in the park** The boat launch is really convenient because it can be used regardless of the tides. There are also two mooring docks that make it easier to move boats onto trailers. There is plenty of room to maneuver trailers of all sizes as well as plenty of parking spaces. The only slight annoyance is that one of the ramps is really bumpy so it is not a very smooth ride getting boats in and out of the water.

Taylor Sharpe

Beautiful all year round. Juat be wary of the goose poop and soggy ground in the winter/spring.

Betty Carter

Beautiful view God bless everybody should check it out.

Neha Roy

Nice park and museums to visit.

Enrico S

Nice view

Gerald Joe

A nice mix of permanent and special exhibits focussed on local history mostly Anglo settler but some indigenous and immigrant. Hosts some good public events and shares facility with a small space museum. Easy access for cyclists and lots of vehicle parking. Transit stops within 1 km.

Oliver Kuehn

Lovely view. Great place to fly kites.

Sugar Phreak

A very scenic park with wonderful views of the bay. It has a gravel path for bikes and pedestrians along the water, and even a little beach area near the museum. However, the one downside to this park is it gets overrun by geese that make most of the open grassy areas unusable. A tip: If you are thinking about watching the fireworks from here in the summer, bring a chair and not a blanket!

Nice waterfront park for jogging, dog walking

Aanchal Sharma

We did cannoying and jt was such an awesome place... beautiful park, people were running, cycling, taking long walks on a beautiful sunny day.

Scott Smith

There's a boat launch with a low dock for easy water access for paddle sports (kayaks, canoes, paddle boards...). The dock is relatively new. The point in the park is a great place to watch boats coming and going from False Creek. There is some parking but it's paid and well patrolled. You'll find free parking in the neighborhood, kits point, a couple blocks away. At the end of the park is a dog beach where boats often wash up. The dog beach would be great for swimming if it weren't for the dogs. Some people drop anchor with their sailboats out from of the dog beach and small bay and row in. When the odd Western winds pick up they often blow poorly anchored boats onto the beach. The maritime museum is in the park and worth a visit. If it's a rainy day then consider going to the planetarium. There's a bike and running path that passed through the park connecting Kitsilano with the sea wall.

Vanier Park is a pretty non descript park. Nothing too special but great views of the downtown and the water. We had our wedding ceremony here for personal reasons so i am forced to give it 5 stars.

Cecilia Teixeira

Beautiful park with awesome views of Downtown Vancouver and False Creek. Vancouver Museum and HR MacMillan Space Centre (with a great planetarium) is only two minutes walking. Also the awesome Maritime Museum can be visited while you are there. During summer months you can watch excellent plays at “Bard on the Beach” [ google it! :) ]

It's a really open space, great to run or go out with your dog. I was there as a tourist, so I mainly visited the zone museums. The MOV is good, but the space center you can skip.

Michael Moriarity

Vanier Park is located in the area of Kits Point and today we parked in a 2 hour spot on 5th avenue and walked down Cypress St. and then down Chestnut St. Into the Park..there are multiple opportunities to view English Bay from the main path that leads from Vancouver Maritime Museum To Granville Island..there are many benches located along this pathway..the open fields invite a relaxing atmosphere looking toward downtown Vancouver and Stanley Park in the distance..there are kits flown in this park.. one of our favourite things to do is purchasing tickets to Bard On The Beach Performances, unfortunately not this year due to Covid ...

Sandy Richardson

Bard on the Beach in Vanier Park always a treat

Mike Stanger

Beautiful location overall. Made better by local attractions like the space centre and seasonal performances of Bard on the Beach. Otherwise a quiet place for walks, picnics, etc. with amazing views.

Adam Hutt

Great park with excellent views and lots of parking.

גל נפתלוביץ'

Beautiful place, clean and quiet.

John Fellows

I love Vanier Park

Patrick Burns

You can visit a little boat harbor.

Jeffrey Wynne

A wonderful and surprisingly overlooked park. Almost always quiet; wonderful place to hang out, socialize, or simply chill with some drinks and fresh blueberries or cherries in hand and watch the sunset. One of those places that reminds one of the simple pleasures in life. Cool views of the mountains and the downtown skyline; dog friendly beach; the area above the escarpment by the Maritime Museum is a favorite spot for viewing fireworks (especially by bicycle, as it's at the foot of the Cypress bike route and less crowded than the beaches below and to the east).

Joel Teichroeb

It was very parky

Andrei Vyrypaev

Nice park by the beach with great views of Vancouver downtown. Some modern art and quiet hidden corners available.

Poised at the edge of English Bay, Vanier Park boasts wonderful views of downtown Vancouver and Stanley Park. Tranquil ponds, open fields, and a wide pathway complement the outstanding waterfront experience. In addition there is a launching ramp for small craft and a nearby public marina. Civic buildings located on the main park include the Vancouver Museum and Planetarium and the City of Vancouver Archives. A BMX bike park is located just south of Burrard Civic Marina. Vancouver's first bike park was completed in August, 2010 and features dirt ramps, jumps and gaps. Formerly an RCAF depot, this site was turned over to the Park Board by the federal government on October 28, 1966. It is named for the then Governor General of Canada, George Vanier. The park was officially opened May 30, 1967. Lumber baron H.R. MacMillan's $1.5 million donation for a planetarium was the impetus for the museum/planetarium complex which were opened in 1968. Later in 1972, the Vancouver City Archives were opened with the subterranean building carefully located on the site. Deputy Park Board Superintendent William Livingstone, famous for his landscape design for Queen Elizabeth Park and VanDusen Botanical Garden, increased the size of the original park site when he took advantage of tons of free fill which resulted in the excavation for the MacMillan Bloedel building on Georgia Street. The fill was free to the Park Board and added additional acres onto the park which was then beautifully landscaped by Livingstone and his crew.

Lovely park along the seawall. On windy days this is a popular location to fly kites. Around the pond is also a nice picnicking spot - be sure to bring a blanket though as it's hard to find a spot without goose poop.

Paul Donovan

The last couple of days have been very special indeed ! With our recent deep freeze some very industrious people have taken it upon them selves to shovel the snow and crest 7 or 8 mini rinks where they are playing hockey and just skating !

Michael Jackman

Probably the most beautiful bike in Canada and very accessible to even beginner bikers.

Yana Berkovich

I wish there was a place to buy ice cream or beer in the park to watch the sunset. Other than that a perfect Vancouver spot

Joel Kaplan

Terrific location.

Bojan Doroslovac

Perfect for kite flying

Kathleen Hamel

Loved Bard on the Beach Shakespeare Festival!

Smallstudio Design

Love Vanier Park ever since I was a kid —- lyses field trips to getting away or special occasions like the Shakespeare Festival Bart at the beach or going to the museums or people visiting from out of town so you take them there or just a place to run around fly kite, jog, walk the dog briskly & get a nice exposed point — so I love going there all the different times a year from spring summer winter & fall! True Vancouverites do NOT get cabin fever - the dedicated Westcoast Canadian are always out in fitness dedication & routine no matter if the weather seems “off” by the transplanted “sugar-cube” types. variables range from the subjective POV of delicates, anywhere from “too slurpy-sludgy (snow), too rainy/wet, too “blah”/cloudy, too smokey (forest-fire dry), or too wild’n windy on brisk ... Canada’s most temperate Pacific City is the country’s mildest yet clearly “too harsh” for those who (don’t care where from) obviously divorced from nature & spend too much time inside. One of the most popular post-lockdown walks is the seawall from Kits Pool to the Planetarium. A key marker along this gorgeous stroll is GATE TO THE NORTHWEST PASSAGE , another sculpture by Alan Chung Hung, Also Downtown Vancouver 2 works: * “Red Spring” (Robson Square); * “Clouds” atop Chung Hung’s Gate, installed in 1980, is comprised of a fifteen inch square of corten steel, set on a bed of paving stones. The artist won a juried competition put on by Parks Canada. Applicants were to build a monument in Vanier Park to commemorate Captain George Vancouver. GATE TO THE NORTHWEST PASSAGE, was initially controversial; some compared it to a monster paperclip. It was actually designed with two of Captain Vancouver’s navigational tools in mind: a Davis quadrant and a plane table. ‘The objective of the sculpture,’ Chung Hung said, ‘is to create a symbolic image with definite visual expression, awakening an awareness in Captain George Vancouver’s contribution to the world, his remarkable and meticulous surveys which included the north Pacific coast.’ If you got visitors it’s definitely the must do selfie’s/family portrait place it’s got a frame is a great view of the city and mountains and beyond any weather. I include interior photos of Vancouver Maritime museum at far west extremity of Vanier Park

Don Sherrah

Good place to relax, boat or watch a Bard on the Beach show

Kyle Lorondeau

Great views, good museums, well maintained, lots of paths and walkways, plenty of parking, lots of entertainment, great place to bring a date. A must visit if traveling to Vancouver for an extended stay. Try leaving it to the last day, it is a great place to say goodbye to the city, and see the sunset at the same time.

Paul Craig

Great venue for a Cyclocross race.

Very nice and relaxing park by the sea. By this park where the water way entrance and exit for Telus science world, Granville Island, Cooper, Hinge, Creekside, Charleston, David False Creek, George Winborn and Ron Bradford parks through False Creek back inlet/backwater. Nice wind attracts many para gliders to practice their skills here. Vancouver Marine Museum is located here. Multiple boat launch ramps and marina exists. Relaxing benches installed all over by the water line. There is a small fresh water pond attracting birds of all all sorts. Worth visit if you are in Vancouver. Parking is available at lot and multiple places by the street. May have to pay.

Beautiful city space

Alex Mukhortov

Small exhibition

Peter Rabbit

My cat loves this park. There's a small beach. I found some oysters there, logs to sit on and big rocks for my cat to explore. There's also a walking path and trees by a small wooden bridge. If you poke around, you'll find a pond. The pond is yucky, too much geese poop. Parking is available for pay, but you can park in the residential area and walk in. There's a nearby off leash dog park so watch for dogs on the loose.

Vancouver Traveller

Easy to launch water toys. Lots of parking.

Nice break in the middle of the city.

Andrew Economos

I love the energy of this place.

Doug Stever-Åkesson

It's where Bard on the Beach is

Juan Hernandez

One of my favorite places in Kitsilano. Park and beach front, what else can you ask for. I like to sit on the benches by the Maritime museum and watch the small ferry boats come in and drop people off. You can see Vancouver's beach on the east end . Very relaxing! People watch while sitting as they walk, jog, ride a bike, fly kites, and see the people with the para-sails try to take lift. The para-sails only go a few feet of the ground but they are fun to watch. Amazing area!

Nhi Le

A great place to watch the sunset...and dogs running on the beach :)
