North Vancouver - Canada Place Vancouver Cruise Ship Web
Cam
The
CANADA PLACE - VANCOUVER to ALASKA CRUISE SHIP CAM is located
in North Vancouver (on Vancouver's North
Shore)
and points towards downtown Vancouver to show visitors
a fabulous view of the Vancouver Convention Centre and
Canada
Place
(home
to many of the summer's Alaska cruise ships).
In the early morning hours, you can see
the cruise ships dock here. Then, later in the early evenings,
watch the cruise ships as they push back into the harbour
(disappearing momentarily on the left side of your screen)
and then set
sail for Alaska (traveling from left to right across your
screen). Depending on the time of
day, and amount of sunlight, images of the Vancouver
cruise ships may appear faded. Early morning and early
evening
are the best
times
to view Canada Place and the cruise ships.
Don't forget to check the cruise ship schedule included
below.
A big thanks to our sponsors who help make
this Alaska Cruise Ship web camera possible.

Cruise ship season runs from May
until October. Check out the included
schedule of arrivals and departures to find the
ship of your choice.
Viewers will also see freighters
anchored in the harbour, pleasure yachts, tugboats
and our very own "seabus" as it travels
back and forth every 15 minutes bringing commuters
home from the downtown core.
In fact, if you are a cruise ship
passenger and have some extra time before you board
ship, you may want to get aboard the "seabus" (it's
public transit operated, like the bus), very inexpensive,
very safe and docks right next to your ship.
So come on over for a visit and take
a mini-cruise to our side of the water. You'll dock
at Lonsdale Quay market where a wealth of boutique
shops, restaurants, entertainment and marketplace
vendors will be pleased to greet you. The 15 minute
trip is well worth it, we promise.
