Fisherman's Wharf
Fisherman's Wharf Review
Victoria Harbour Ferries has its terminal at this fun nautical spot, just west of the Inner Harbour. You can watch fishers unload their catches and admire the various vessels, or picnic in the shoreside park. Among the candy-color houseboats bobbing along the dock are several floating shacks where you can buy ice cream, fish-and-chips, live crabs, kayak tours, and tickets for whale-watching tours. Other booths sell fish to feed the harbor seals who often visit the quay. The busiest vendor is Barb's, an esteemed fish-and-chips spot.
