June–September is peak — 18–25°C, dry sunny days, sold-out hotels. July–August is warmest but busiest.

I'm a first-time visitor — what should I know?
Three days downtown + one Whistler day trip + one Vancouver Island (Victoria) ferry is the perfect intro.
关于Vancouver
Vancouver is North America's most spectacularly-sited city after Rio — Pacific coast, Coast Mountains on the North Shore, 400-hectare Stanley Park with 10 km seawall, and a compact walkable Downtown between Coal Harbour and False Creek. Whistler is 2h north, Vancouver Island ferry is 90 min west, Seattle is 3h south. Chinese, Japanese, Korean, South Asian and Indigenous cultures make it Canada's most Pacific-facing city.
为什么要去Vancouver？
Vancouver is the only major North American city where you can ski in the morning and sail in the afternoon — and eat some of the best Asian food outside Asia.
