SUMMERTIME FISHING LUCK FOR CHILDREN!

Henry Heron works down at Fisherman’s Wharf.

Working with the local office cat, and Salty Seagull, he’s an important member of the dock team. He helps by keeping boats free of stray fish – in dinghies – and rats too, really! With deadly aim. But some days he simply enjoys the views and greets visitors…..

Vancouver Harbor harbors some of the most interesting commercial, charter vessels, visiting yachts, BC built character ships, and tiny but just as fascinating boats with figureheads and cute ‘Pretty Blue Eyes’  

For all lovers of the sea and Vancouver’s waterfront scene…. 

Dockside or on the water…

Architecture afloat! 

Beautiful 1930s Robert Allan designed ‘Meander’ cruises BC water and moors across from Granville Island where sleek cruisers leave English Bay.

Party boats host tourists and V to V takes travelers from Vancouver to Victoria in luxury!

Locals love this scene and the local economy flourishes, but little ships work too…

Saluting Port of Vancouver Ships and Mariners!

ALL IMAGES COPYRIGHT ROSEMARY HANNA Summertime, where living is easy down by the sea – for dreamers. Where big and small ships, and their mariners, protect Canada’s Port of entry. Safety for Canadians and visitors! To play, cruise, learn and maybe stay forever. Other ships are the heart of Vancouver’s working waterfront, Canada’s commercial drumbeat.  They are coming to work while cruise ships and commercial vessels enter the Port of Vancouver. Offshore, navy and rescue vessels. Some little workboats wait and dream of their next missions, ready to head out from port under a new command.
