Most scenic way (and sometimes fastest way) to get to Granville Island Market is the False Creek water taxi which docks at the beach near the Aquatic Centre. This iconic Vancouver site is home to The Granville Island Tea Company which has one of the best masala chai's in the city! Also get excellent soup at The Soup Market or scrumptious wild salmon burger at The Grill. Amazing organic bakery here too called "Bread Affair". Loads of artisan shops to browse and there is theatre, much of it!
