    Passing by the Science World sphere and spotting seals on the way was exciting, the time flew by and I wanted to stay longer in the water.

    My family and I rented two-seater kayaks in Vancouver and it was a perfect activity for everyone. We paddled False Creek and marvelled at the views of the city.

    The kayak rental in Vancouver was a fantastic way to enjoy the day. I chose a single-seater kayak and explored False Creek, passing by Science World and BC Place. The instructions from the staff were helpful and the experience was great.

    My friend and I opted for paddle surfing in Vancouver and had a great time. It was an exciting challenge and the views of the city from the water were spectacular. The only complaint would be that the water was a bit choppy that day.
