Situated north of weird and south of Sound, Vancouver, Washington is where being in between feels just right. The city’s roots originated on the Columbia River’s north shore, where some of the Pacific Northwest’s first indigenous inhabitants started a diverse and thriving community. Now that growth presents itself in our innovative waterfront, friendly and walkable downtown, and easy access to Mount St. Helens, the Columbia River Gorge, and the Pacific Coast. We’re close to everything, but far from typical.
Washington’s Vancouver is full of family fun to discover. Our relaxed pace of life and diverse range of attractions continue to delight visitors of all ages. Bring the family to explore new trails or find unique playgrounds like Nikkei Park’s dinosaur land. Fun, educational activities are abundant with Fort Vancouver National Historic Site, Pearson Air Museum, the Water Resources Education Center, and more. From outdoor adventures and hands-on learning, to family-friendly hotels and restaurants, Vancouver has plenty of things to do for families of all kinds.
