Lion’s Head Marina

Call For Info: 519-793-4060

This has been described as the prettiest marina in Ontario. It is nestled under the Niagara Escarpment, walkable to all amenities and restaurants, besides the beach where the Farmer's Market and Harbourside Music are held weekly. There are charcoal BBQs and picnic tables available for your use so pack dinner! This marina is run by the Municipality and offers 150 transient slips with an 18 ft depth at the dock.

Spend some time on the water exploring the Lion’s Head harbor. You can even find shipwrecks in the crystal clear water, or venture out along the 200ft limestone cliffs. Remember all your safety equipment as Georgian Bay is BIG water. You can launch your watercraft from the beach or marina.
