Ready to make a splash in St. Catharines?

We have the unique opportunity here in STC to take advantage of a lakeside lifestyle! Here are some ways to get out on the water to make the most of our southern Canadian summer. 🌊

Spend the day at the beach:
Lakeside Park Beach and Sunset beach are both great spots to spend a day in the sun!

Get on the water:
Think of a sunset boat tour, a solo day paddleboarding, or an action-packed day on a rental jet-ski.

Dine by the water:
From the marina views in Port Dalhousie to a one-of-a-kind canal-side patio where you can watch ships pass through — there’s no shortage of scenic spots to grab a bite.
