We have it all in St. Catharines!
Downtown St. Catharines is as bright and bustling as ever. Spend the day shopping, or enjoying a meal at one of our countless restaurants, bars, and bistros. While you are touring around, be sure to visit some of the magnificent architectural masterpieces, some of which have been around as early as the 1820’s. Downtown has an enviable array of shopping and dining options. You’ll find boutiques, antique stores, curiosity shops, book stores, shoes, leathers, jewellery, bistros, restaurants, and outdoor cafes.
Stroll along the shores of Lake Ontario in our quaint Harbourside Village of Port Dalhousie. Look upon the two historical lighthouses’, visit the many shops and fine restaurants. Ride an original historic Looff carousel for just 5 cents.
Constantly buzzing with creativity and community, St. Catharines is brought to life by our music, dance, theatre, art, and history. Music lovers will enjoy a variety of sounds ranging from choirs to chamber music to the Niagara Symphony Orchestra. On stage, our city is thriving with contemporary theatre for children and exceptional productions.
New blends with the old as landmarks throughout the city tell stories of our past: the canals – old and new, our historic districts, at the St. Catharines Museum and the picturesque Morningstar Mill. Montebello Park is host to a variety of cultural festivals and concerts.
Grab a pair of walking shoes, your bike, ice skates, boat, cross country skis or hiking gear and enjoy some of our magnificent gardens, beautiful waterfront and over 1,000 acres of lush parkland. St. Catharines offers trails, fishing charters, cycling tours, sky diving, wind surfing, beaches, boating, marinas, sports fields, arenas, tobogganing, rowing, skating and cross country skiing venues. Visit our Provincial Parks for bird watching, hiking and camping, and some of the best fishing in the world. If you like to boat, you have your choice of Lake Ontario and Lake Erie; in fact, you can hook up to both by going through the series of locks on the Welland Canal.
