The verdict

Coast Coal Harbour is the open-air pool, ten minutes on foot from the ship. Coast puts Canada Place a 10-minute walk away, and the heated outdoor pool and whirlpool stay open year-round, weather permitting, with Prestons downstairs for breakfast.

It lands fifth because parking is valet only and unpriced — with in-and-out privileges and EV chargers, per Coast, but no number.

Prestons serves a buffet or à la carte breakfast, and Coast doesn't say it's included. Check-in is 4 PM, re-read Oct 2, 2026.

Take the 10-minute walk if the weather's kind; otherwise it's about 0.9 miles by road, our estimate.

Book it if

  • Anyone who wants to walk to the ship
  • Swimmers
  • Transit riders from YVR

Look elsewhere if

  • You want to self-park.
  • You want breakfast included.
