Heritage Harbour
Heritage Harbour is a living museum on the water, sitting right in front of the Vancouver Maritime Museum at Vanier Park. You'll find a curated collection of vintage wooden vessels moored here as a free outdoor exhibition — a rare chance to get up close with beautifully preserved historic boats. It's a genuinely unique spot where maritime history feels tangible rather than behind glass.
