  2. Bridges Granville Island landmark boasts an expansive deck with views of False Creek and beyond.
  3. The Galley Patio and Grill West Side casual eatery above Jericho Sailing Centre is worth the trip for ocean views, good brews and salmon burgers.
  4. The Boathouse Restaurant Enjoy crab cakes or a bucket of shrimp and North Shore views on the Kitsilano location’s deluxe deck.
  5. The Flying Beaver Bar and Grill Catch the seaplanes (including namesake de Havilland Beavers) coming and going at this hangout that doubles as the airport pub and a floatplane terminal.—Tim Pawsey
