Best Water Parks and Adventures in BC

Cultus Lake Water Park, Cultus Lake

Cool off at this popular water park, which is home to 18 different waterslides. Visitors must try the “Colossal Canyon,” in particular, as it boasts the title of Western Canada’s biggest and tallest waterslide. Each raft has a seating capacity of five people, or four adults. The ride starts at an elevation of 75 feet and then twists and winds its way through the trees for approximately 700 feet.

Skip the bike ride along the seawall and opt to pedal on water instead. BC Water Bikes in Vanier Park rents out hydro bikes where guests can simply glide across the waters of False Creek and English Bay (while also getting a good workout in). The fun activity also gives bikers a unique perspective of the city.
