I understand that Wreck Beach and Piggy's Palace have become very popular tourist destinations.

Grab a beer at Malone's at Kits on the patio.
Best place to watch the women run by in their Lululemons. The parade of hotties begins at 3:30 and goes till 7.

Psh. That could be done anywhere in Vancouver.
Depending on when you come, check out the fireworks on English Bay - unless you did last night. If not there's some on Saturday.. but it gets super crowded.

There are a couple of girls at Brandi's that are definitely worth your time. And yes, Mr. Affleck got into a little bit of trouble at Brandi's. It was probably well worth it as his wife at the time was an unholy &@$&*.
The view anywhere downtown Vancouver is pretty spectacular in the summer time. My next hurts from my 10 min hike up to Burrard yesterday.
The Roxy is definitely a good time. Ask for B, one of the bar tenders, he will take care of you.
At Joe Fortes ask for Jammer, another bar keep, he will also take care of you. Fortes is really nice.
Swinging by Yaletown and grabbing a beer with the G man here is a highlight of anyone's visit to Vancouver...

Yeah stop by Pigeon Park. Probably the scariest place in the country.

Nobody mentioned Kitsilano yet? I'll be the first. Walking Broadway is also a nice gem; lots of good little stores to check out.
Also, don't forget hookers and blow on East Hastings. It ain't a Holiday with a visit to Hastings.

Highly recommend this.
Always ask for regular beer when you're there. I dont want to try some random joint's home brew that tastes like dead whale.

Queen Elizabeth Park
Welcome to Vancouver's Horticultural Jewel! Queen Elizabeth Park is the second most visited park in Vancouver and holds within its perimeters some of the most beautiful public gardens anywhere. Its recreational offerings are diverse ranging from sporty to horticultural and include golf, tennis, lawn bowling, disc golf, an extensive outdoor arboretum and the indoor Bloedel Floral Conservatory.
The seasonally changing and beautifully planted Quarry Gardens astound residents and tourists alike as viewed from the park's upper reaches or from the bottom looking up. Expertly positioned, select ornamental trees and shrubs make this Vancouver's horticultural jewel located practically city-centre.

I went the Mill bistro in Coal Harbor last night for a few beers. Great spot. Right on the water with a fantastic view of the North Shore Mountains.
But judging by the ridiculous and ignorant title to this thread, you might as well just stay in your hotel room during your time here.
