About Harbourfront

At Harbourfront, the lake finally stops being that blue strip between the buildings. Walk the stretch by the Harbourfront Centre, with boats, benches and cultural spaces facing the water. After the CN Tower, your neck has worked harder than your legs.

The cultural center has exhibitions and performances; you can also come just for the stroll. Afterward, continue along the waterfront toward the Jack Layton terminal for the crossing to the islands. Budget time for the walk separately from time for the line: the dock doesn't read travel itineraries.
