Sightseeing

Seawall Jogging Route/Bike rentals (A MUST DO!) – Ok so just hang a right once you are out the front gate downstairs and hang another right at the cross street. Jog down Water Street through gas town and when you get to Richard Street which is at the top of Gastown keep right. You will run past waterfront station and keep going until you see Canada place on your right hand side. Jog down that way towards the water. There you will see the bike and jogging path that goes ALLLLLLLLL THE WAAAAAAY around beautiful Stanley park! If you're not a jogger like me and prefer to rent a bike just take a taxi from the loft to the corner of Georgia/Denman street. There are a number of bike rental places to choose from. Have fun!

Parks & Nature

Downtime Digs– Portside Park aka Crab Park- It’s hard to believe there could still be a 3.3-hectare hidden gem right smack in downtown Vancouver. But Portside Park might just fit the bill. It’s waterfront, has a big beach and offers some of the best views of the downtown skyline and North Shore mountains anywhere in Vancouver. And it’s practically empty – even on a sunny, summer day.
