The City of St. Catharines is home to an array of attractions brimming with opportunities to experience the city’s rich heritage, vibrant culture and extraordinary natural beauty.
Officially nicknamed the Garden City, St. Catharines offers over 1,000 acres of parks, gardens, and trails making for a beautiful place to live.
In addition to all the greenery, St. Catharines also features the historic harbour front village of Port Dalhousie on the south shores of Lake Ontario and the terminus of the first three Welland Canals. The water provides even more natural beauty to the city and plays host annually to the Royal Canadian Henley Regatta, drawing rowers from all over the world.
Add in downtown St. Catharines, with more than 120 shops, boutiques and 50 culinary establishments, shopping centres like the Pen Centre, Niagara’s largest mall, and 200 years of history and St. Catharines is certainly a fantastic place to live.
St. Catharines is also only a short drive from other fantastic spots in the Niagara region, such as Niagara-on-the-Lake and Niagara Falls, which provide a variety of other attractions and history for individuals or families to enjoy.
Finally, add in the fact that St. Catharines finds itself located between Buffalo and Toronto and you have a wide variety of entertainment options as well as two international airports within a relatively short distance, adding a great deal of convenience.
