Vancouver Harbour Live Cam – Canada Place & Skyline View

Vancouver LIVE brings you a 24/7 view of one of the most beautiful working harbours in the world, filmed from North Vancouver across Burrard Inlet. The camera pans along the waterfront, taking in the downtown skyline, Canada Place with its white sail-like roof, passing vessels and the steady rhythm of city life across the water.

The Port of Vancouver is the largest port in Canada, so the inlet is constantly busy. Container ships, bulk carriers and tugs share the water with cruise ships in summer, the SeaBus ferries shuttling between Lonsdale Quay and Waterfront Station, and seaplanes taking off and landing from the harbour's floatplane terminal.

When to watch

• Morning: harbour activity and departing seaplanes
• Afternoon: a relaxing view of the city and the mountains
• Sunset: changing colours over the water
• Night: Vancouver's lights reflected in the inlet

From May to October, cruise ships bound for Alaska dock at Canada Place, adding giant vessels to the scene. On clear days, the backdrop of sea, glass towers and mountains shows why Vancouver regularly tops lists of the world's most liveable cities.
