Overview

One of the most memorable Vancouver BC Boat Tours, experience the beauty of Indian Arm with our Granite Falls Tour at Burrard Inlet Charters & Tours. Cruise along the fjord like inlet, taking in the stunning scenery with stops at 2 powerful waterfalls. Keep and eye out for marine wildlife, including playful harbour seals along the way!

This is a PRIVATE tour, which means it's completely customizable! You decide where you want to spend more time - soaking in the sun at Bedwell Bay, exploring the Twin Islands, checking out the waterfront homes, dropping anchor at Granite falls, swimming perhaps - you decide.

Aboard the 2018 21' Tohoe 700 you'll enjoy ample seating for up to 6 passengers, an extended swim platform, storable cooler and table, Bluetooth stereo and Bimini top. Agile enough to get you closer to falls than any larger vessel possibly could and ashore in areas where others just can't, there's no better way to take in the sights and sounds of Indian Arm than with us.

Granite Falls

Granite Falls is a stunning natural wonder located in the Indian Arm, just north of Vancouver. It’s situated about 18 kilometers from Deep Cove.The falls cascade down a massive granite slab, creating a spectacular sight. The water flows for about 150 feet, making it an awe-inspiring place to visit. The dock was damaged in a storm in 2023 and had to be removed. There is no dock making going ashore unlikely with larger vessels, but with Burrard Inlet Charters & Tours it’s possible!

The falls are nestled amidst lush greenery, and the river flows from Elsay Lake just below Mt. Seymour. Tucked away in a nook of the steep west shoreline, they can be easily missed, but Not with Burrard Inlet Charters & Tours that will get you up much more close and personal with the falls than any larger tour boat possibly could!
