Port Dalhousie Harbour Marina

Port Dalhousie Harbour is the former entrance point to the first, second and third Welland Canals. Day-docking is made available in this section of the harbour by the City of St. Catharines. The Dalhousie Yacht Club marina can be seen further ahead filled with boats from ports all over the great lakes. Take a rest on one of the benches and watch the activity, or watch the ducks and geese that make the harbour their home.
