Olympic Village (FRK)

Read our First Season Report on False Creek Water Monitoring

Olympic Village is located south of Science World at the most eastern point of False Creek. It is the last stop of the False Creek Ferry and Aquabus. It is also home to the Creekside Paddling Centre and the Dragon Zone Paddling club.

Situated on the bustling Seawall system, the Olympic Village area is a great spot to experience Vancouver’s active waterfront. With a view of Vancouver’s downtown and the north shore mountains, lounge on public benches or by the water and watch paddlers, boaters, kayakers, and dragon boats float by.

There is also a public short-term dock (Science World Dock) available for dinghies at the furthest southeast corner of False Creek.

AMENITIES:
• On the Seawall system
• Mobi bike station close by
• Science world parking
• Water fountains
• Public washrooms at Creekside Community Center

MONITORING FREQUENCY

SOURCE INFORMATION

Fraser Riverkeeper follows the Guidelines for Canadian Recreational Water Quality. The recommended threshold for bathing is a geometric mean of 200 E coli/100mL and a single sample of 400 E coli/100 mL.

A beach is marked Green when geometric mean results are under 200 E.coli / 100 mL water and single sample results are below 400 E.coli/100mL.

A beach is marked Red when the geometric mean results are equal to or above 200 E.coli / 100 mL water or single sample results are above 400 E.coli/100 mL.

A beach is marked Grey when there are no current results or there is no available information.

The geometric mean is calculated based on the 5 last samples.

The single simple is the weekly sample result.
