Zaandam says follow the leader! There’s smooth sailing… and then there’s this! Watch as Zaandam, Coral Princess, and Seven Seas Explorer take their turns departing Vancouver Harbour in a near-perfect cruise ship choreography on May 14, 2025 . Each one glides out of Canada Place in tight sequence — a visual treat for ship lovers and harbour fans alike.
Zaandam kicks off the procession, setting the tone with a gentle, elegant exit. Coral Princess follows shortly after, keeping the momentum going with a beautifully timed departure. And just when you think it's over, Seven Seas Explorer makes her move — the luxury liner gracefully exiting with style. It’s like watching a maritime dance — and Vancouver nailed the performance.
Set against the moody grey skies of a classic West Coast day, the ships look majestic as they make their way out of the harbour. Floatplanes buzz overhead, seaplanes glide across Coal Harbour, and tiny tugboats guide the giants through the Narrows. It’s Vancouver transport in all its forms — seaplane, ferry, and cruise ship — all captured in one magical moment.
This short video is perfect for anyone dreaming of their next Alaska cruise from Vancouver, a luxury ocean voyage, or simply enjoying the slow beauty of ships in motion. If you’ve ever wondered what ship-spotting looks like at its very best, this is it.
