Considered one of the best place in the city to fly a kite or perhaps watch someone else use there talent as they swim boldly through the air. As a visitor you can marvel at the fancy loops, swirls and dips by the seashore. The Views of the water and downtown makes Vanier Park a great place to just sit quietly and enjoy the outdoors.

Vanier Park is considered a large park with surrounding 35 hectares of land at the south end of the Burrard bridge, was set aside in 1877 as a reserve for the Squamish people. But in 1913, the B.C. government, under Conservative premier Richard McBride, decided they would like to use that land for Vancouver’s growth.
