Lonsdale Quay
Lonsdale Quay Review
Stalls selling fresh produce and ready-to-eat food fill the lower level of this popular indoor seaside market; upstairs are boutiques, toy stores, and a kids' play area. Outside you can wander the quay, admire the fishing boats and tugs moored here, and enjoy the views of the downtown skyline across the water. You'll also see a number of old dry docks and canneries finding fresh leases on life as modish condominiums. This is a great rainy-day activity.
SeaBus foot-passenger ferry. This ferry, part of the city's public transit system, leaves the quay every 15 to 30 minutes for the 13-minute ride to Waterfront Station downtown. 604/953-3333. www.translink.bc.ca.
