Vancouver Port Live

About

Vancouver BC is arguably the most beautiful city in North America. This 24/7 southern panoramic view from the lower slopes of Grouse Mountain changes daily depending on the west coast weather and features Alaskan cruise ships, container ship traffic, a helicopter port, seaplane terminal, yachts, and when we pan out the easternmost tip of Stanley Park. Vancouver Island is in the background and on clear days, the Olympic Peninsula in the USA and the ferries to Victoria may also be seen. I am a semi-retired resident of North Vancouver and mounted a 36x zoom camera on my roof in late July 2024. I hope people enjoy the harbour traffic, sunrises and sunsets, and overall panoramic views of our beautiful city. Thank you very much for the likes and subscribes, and if you would like to support the channel more, super chat and super thanks have been enabled; click the $ at the bottom of the livestream chat.
