We are only 20 minutes (18 kilometers/11 miles) to downtown Vancouver - that's downtown behind and to the left of the ship in the background of the picture - along scenic Marine Drive. Regular bus service is close by. Stanley Park, Grouse Mountain, Capilano Suspension Bridge, Cypress Bowl Ski &Hiking Area, Hollyburn Mountain and Ambleside Beach are all within a short drive. Many restaurants and the exclusive shopping areas of Dundarave, Ambleside and Park Royal Shopping Centre are nearby.
