溫哥華地理位置位於[[卑詩]]省西南沿海地區，坐落[[布勒半島]]西部，南面瀕臨[[菲莎河]]北支流，北面則瀕臨[[布勒內灣]]和[[英吉利灣]]，是加拿大西岸最大的[[港口]]。向西面向[[乔治亚海峡|喬治亞海峽]]，但由[[溫哥華島]]一天然屏障所遮擋。溫哥華使用[[太平洋时区|太平洋時區]]（UTC−8），並處於加拿大陸地生態區域（Pacific Maritime Ecozone）<ref>

溫哥華市的城區座落布勒內灣和[[福溪 (溫哥華)|福溪]]之間的半島，並包括[[溫哥華市中心|市中心]]、[[西端區 (溫哥華)|西端區]]和[[史丹利公園]]。福溪以南和以東的地區則可依安大略街分成溫西和溫東。此外，市政府亦將市內範圍劃分成23個社區。

溫市隸屬卑詩省轄下的[[大溫哥華區域局]]；區域局轄下除溫市外另設20個市鎮，包括[[列治文]]、[[本拿比|本拿比市]]、[[素里市]]等。溫市西鄰[[大學保留地]]，北面隔著布勒內灣與[[西溫區]]、[[北溫區]]和[[北溫市]]相望，東臨本拿比，南面隔著[[菲沙河]]北支流與列治文為鄰。

溫哥華氣候溫和，四季宜人，市內草地常綠、繁花似錦，有許多城市公園，其中[[史丹利公園]]（面積404.9公頃1.001英畝)為北美中最大城市公園之一<ref>{{cite web
