Waterfront and Beaches

Along the shores of Lake Ontario, the Port Hope waterfront offers a wide variety of recreational opportunities including hiking, swimming, boating, and leisure.

Haliburton Kawartha Pine Ridge District Health Unit completes regular testing of our beaches to ensure the water is safe for swimming. Check the Beach Water Monitoring Results before you swim.

The Municipality hosts two main public beaches. These beaches provide a quiet place to take a dip or enjoy a sunset. Playgrounds and picnic areas are available nearby.

The boat launch is open year-round at no cost to the user. The fish cleaning station is located along Mill Street South.

The Ganaraska River in the Municipality of Port Hope offers some of the most diverse fishing experiences in the Province, with Salmon and Trout reaching up to 40 pounds.
