Spectacular by Nature
The Vancouver area is surrounded by some of the most stunning natural beauty in the world. Lush rainforest covered mountains to beach-lined inlets, fjords and islands.

What does August in Vancouver mean…biking and hiking, walks along the seawall, tennis, sailing, beaches, fishing, boating, golfing, museums, art galleries, shopping and great restaurants serving world class cuisine from every corner of the globe.

The experience is limitless and the time of year is perfect! Be sure to plan extra time before and after the congress to explore some of the world’s most spectacular scenery. Whether you’re interested in seeing the Rockies, cruising up the coast to Alaska, or taking advantage of the great summer season in Whistler, International Conference Services (the Congress Secretariat) will be offering a selection of tours before, during and after the meeting. Be sure to bring your family to join in on the fun because the best time to visit Vancouver is August 2007!
