On the water west of the bridge, off Stanley Park's north-west shore
The view is from the water just west of the bridge, off Stanley Park's north-west shore, looking east as a cruise ship heads in under the main span. The bridge sets the size limit for ships entering Vancouver's harbour: the design clearance is 61 metres at high water, and the harbour authority works out a lower limit for each ship, about 55 to 57 metres at higher high water. The tide in the Narrows can rise and fall by about five metres, so the tallest ships need the authority's approval and wait for low water. Recently the Star Princess, then the largest cruise ship ever to visit Vancouver, passed in the small hours at low tide for exactly that reason.
