Feeding the bunnies is a great way to meet some friendly rabbits (it's a fairly popular pass-time for Vancouverites, so the bunnies are really friendly), but also to enjoy your trip to the beach. It's easy to visit on your way to/from UBC.

Richmond Night Market

Well, to be honest, Taiwanese night markets in Taiwan would be a little bit nicer, but if you are around, it's definitely worth checking. My Taiwanese friends said that it is not bad, and they do visit this Richmond night market). They have also a cute gigantic duck balloon by the entrance.

If you can't afford a fancy dinner cruise, this is a great way to see the city (you'll see some locals going to/from work with their bikes), and a fun way to get around. It's a great way to see a lot in a very short amount of time (notably, if you only have a few days in the city, and no car). Plus, who doesn't love boats?

If you've got a bit of time in Vancouver (it will take time to find the jumps, and to get to them - notably, if you don't have a car), this can be a great way to spend a summer afternoon. Locations of the cliffs will be posted in the comments.

Avoid the crowds at more popular gardens, and check out VanDusen! The hedge maze is a popular attraction, and children and adults alike enjoy the challenge. This is a walk through the park you will not regret paying for. There are also lots of events year-round (check the website for details).

If you haven't checked out the aquarium in daylight hours, and an event is happening during your visit, make time to check out these events (they happen monthly, or bi-monthly). If you think the Aquarium is something you should pass on your trip, my best advice is as follows: don't. Most people don't expect to love it as much as they do!

Perfectly situated in the middle of the downtown-core, the Vancouver Art Gallery is a great way to spend a couple of hours during your time in the city. They even have their own cafe that has an awesome outdoor patio where you can enjoy some really good food and drink. This is a popular spot for locals and business folk on their lunch breaks!

There are a variety of events, and there is something here for everyone (be sure check ahead so you're not accidentally attending an event that is not your thing). Also, with a diverse, and delicious, vegetarian menu (with gluten-free and vegan options), there's something here for everyone; even meat-eaters will be satisfied. There's a kid section

It's a great place to stop by if you're passing by. They have a good menu which is pretty diverse. (They have options that are gluten and vegan friendly) They also have a good selection of local beer and wine if you're into that as well! I would suggest stopping by here on a sunny afternoon/early evening to enjoy local musicians in the square.

If you come to/live in Vancouver, you should visit either this bridge, or the one at Lynn Canyon. If you have a bit of money to spare, I recommend this bridge over Lynn Canyon; there's quite a lot that it has to offer (many challenges within the park, shows, guided tours, affordable gift shop, ect).

It's a great hike to the bridge and beyond. Past the suspension bridge, you will come across a 30-ft natural pool and a waterfall. It is also an entry point to the Baden Powell Trail which is an extensive trail that connects all the parks in the North Shore mountains. You can also make a detour to the Rice lake and maybe go fishing there.
