Coal Harbour Walking Tour, British Columbia Canada
Coal Harbour Walking Tour starts at Canada Place and is located at the downtown Vancouver waterfront. It's a calm and modern neighbourhood and is a great place for walking, cycling and the plaza has places to eat on the patio.
The name of Coal Harbour is from back in the past when coal was discovered and mined from a coal seam on the upper shore of the harbour (1859). It was low grade coal.
