The Vancouver, Coast & Mountains regions is spectacularly situated by the water, so do something doubly delectable — cruise its celebrated shores while savouring a fine meal and extraordinary scenery. Some cruises provide guides, others live entertainment. Sunset dinner cruises are particularly popular. During Vancouver's Celebration of Light each summer, many companies offer sunset dinner cruises that give you the best seat in the house for the dazzling fireworks display.
