Caught the aqua bus from the Hornsby Street dock. The dock is literally across the water from Granville Island by about 150odd meters. The Aquabus runs every few minutes between those two points and takes about 40 people per trip and include bikes. The cost can be paid on the bus and cost $4 one way (for an adult) or $3.25 Canadian dollars if you purchase online. You can do this at the dock by scanning the qr code and paying by credit card. In the time it took the aquabus to head to Granville Island and before their return, I had purchased my ticket and received a email confirming my ticket. The trip itself took left that several minutes from boarding to travelling and then disembarking on the Granville Island dock. I would definitely use this mode of transport again.

Super easy to jump on one next to the Public Market building. If you're staying in downtown VanCity and using rideshares, it might be faster/less hassle to take the aquabus over to Hornby and catch your ride there rather than have to wait for it to work its way through the Granville traffic. Fare was $4 per person. Note that if you only have American currency, they'll take it but at 1:1 (you can pay via credit card).

A great way to cut across False Creek. For pedestrians, cyclists, and pet walkers - it is a great way to get to the 'other side'. We were on food, on the downtown side, and wanted to go to Granville Island. Hopped on at the foot of Hornby Street - a couple of minutes to get to the island. We then wanted to go to Roger's Arena from Granville Island, we took the Aquabus to Yaletown and it was a short, picturesque walk. It was a decent weather day which made this trip even more enjoyable. You can see the False Creek area from a different perspective. Note: This is not cheap - however think of this not as transportation but more as an experience then the price isn't a bother.

The Aquabus is a fun and scenic way to get around False Creek. I particularly recommend it to get between downtown (Hornby or Yaletown) and Granville Island. Service is frequent and you can either pay on the bus or at one of the ticket booths.

What a bargain $17 all day ticket with frequent boats it’s a great way to see the city from the water. Easily accessible from a few metro stops approx 400m walk. Use the service to get to specific sights, we went to Granville Island market which is fantastic. The staff are friendly helpful and knowledgeable - easily worth the ticket price

My wife and I were walked out. We hiked all over the city. Aquabus - seven stops. Hit them all over a sunny afternoon. Had some snacks and eats at a couple of stops. Helped me pick a part of the city to visit the next day.

We needed to get from downtown (The Plaza of Nations) to Granville Island and were going to get the False Creek ferry but the Aquabus turned up first so we jumped on. It was slightly cheaper than the False Ck ferry and they gave us a ticket that allowed us to get to Granville Island, stop for an hour or 2 and then get back on to go across the creek to the Aquatic Centre side so we could get out to the sea walk and on to Stanley Park. The operators were casual but professional and very friendly and helpful. They got us to Granville Island and later to the eastern side of the creek with a minimum of fuss.

Great fun, very convenient. We purchased the day tickets ($36 for 1 senior and 1 adult) great value, as we hopped on and off all day, and could easily have just sat there and gone round and round 😁😁 False Creek is interesting with Granville Island at one end and the Science World at the other (looked to be an amazing place for family groups!) lots of parks along the edges that the ferries stop at.

These little boats are one of my favourite things about Vancouver. It's such a fun way to get about False Creek. We typically got it from Hornby St to Granville Island, which takes a couple of minutes only. The staff are always friendly and laid back, and the boats themselves are just so cute and colouful.

A great way to see Vancouver from the water. It’s a real bargain at $11 for seniors. We just rode around once and got off. It took about an hour. Aaron, the firefighter, and Leila were a great crew. We had a blast chatting with them.
