Don't be fooled, there is no such place as Canada Water. I don't mean it's completely made up like Narnia, Lilliput or Dunstable - Canada Water is the name of the lake and of the underground/overground/bus stations. However, these are all actually located in Surrey Quays.
Canada Water is the only freshwater lake in the docklands and was part of the old Canada Dock.
Next door is Surrey Quays Shopping Centre in case you want to stop for a spot of food/drink/shopping/go for a wee
There is 4 hours free parking at the shopping centre if you're arriving by car.
Congrats to rtrich for FTF and loonylondo for STF
The lid isn't very good and can fall off if it isn't pushed back on securely. Thanks
