I would recommend going to Stanley Park. Vancouver Aquarium and BC Place to see some Cruise Ships roll by and Capilano Suspensions bridge in North Vancouver.
I would highly recommend renting a Car and taking a ferry over to Vancouver Island as well and taking the Island Highway, personally one of the most beautiful drives in all of Canada. Vancouver Island has Victoria BC's capital and Some fucking nice beaches. Ferry's run for 35$ per passenger and $60 per car nothing to insane.
I as well forgot to mention that Harbour Air a Sea Plane Company that does commercial and touring for a good price. You'll be able to take a seaplane across the Strait over to the Islands or you can get a whole scenic view of Vancouver's whole area.
