While Stanley Park is always a popular place to bike the Vancouver Seawall, the oceanside route that passes through Olympic Village is a pretty place to take a leisurely cycle—visit Granville Island, Kitsilano, or the city center on the paved route. Pick up a bike rental from the Mobi stand in Olympic Village—the bike share programs enables you to rent a bike and return it to one of the hubs that are found around the city.
