Canada · Ships call at Vancouver, Canada
Warm and dry
Vancouver in August offers pleasant temperatures, with highs around 76°F and comfortable lows near 58°F. Rain is uncommon, with only about 2 rainy days expected across the month, ideal for beach days and shore excursions. Warm and dry.
This is one of the most popular months to visit Vancouver, so book shore excursions early. The top snorkeling spots and tours sell out fast. Lightweight layers work well: a light cardigan for evenings on deck and breathable tops for port days cover most conditions.

Vancouver is a seasonal homeport: ships leave from Canada Place from spring to fall, and most of them sail to Alaska. The terminal is downtown on the harbor, a short walk from Gastown and a train ride from the airport. In the winter months no cruises leave from here, so we have no weather data for them.
The average high temperature in Vancouver during August is 76°F, with a low of 58°F.
Vancouver typically sees 2 days of rain in August. Warm and dry.
For a August cruise to Vancouver, you should pack lightweight, breathable clothing, swimwear, and sun protection.
