The University area is also known as the University Endowment Lands which has plenty of green space, walking and bike trails. To the West is The Strait of Georgia, Wreck Beach for nude sunbathers and Spanish Banks for those that prefer to wear a bathing suit. Both beaches have a breathtaking view of the North Shore mountains, with Spanish Banks offering a panorama of the Vancouver's West End.

On the Edge of Yaletown, False Creek North has it's own Seawall that is a continuation of the English Bay Seawall.  A great view of the creek, boats, and the condos and green space that surround False Creek North.
