Frequently Asked Questions
Near the Roberta Bondar Marina, named for Canada's first woman astronaut, a native of the city. Downtown begins a few blocks away.
Yes. A boardwalk runs about two kilometres along the St. Marys River, linking Mill Square to the Art Gallery of Algoma, with interpretive panels along the way.
The waterfront boardwalk, the Canadian historic canal and the Canadian Bushplane Heritage Centre easily fill half a day. South St. Marys Island, laced with trails and boardwalks, fits in if time allows.
The locks that carry ships over the roughly 6.5-metre difference in level between Lake Superior and Lake Huron, on the American side of the border. They are among the busiest locks in the world by tonnage.
Yes, and depending on the itinerary the cruise ship transits the lock itself: the slow, quiet passage is best watched from the upper deck. Local interpretive cruises also offer the experience from downtown.
A national historic site run by Parks Canada, completed in 1895. At its opening it completed an all-Canadian waterway between the Atlantic and Lake Superior and already ran on electricity generated on site. Its lock still serves pleasure craft.
About thirty aircraft in a former Ontario air services hangar, telling the story of the floatplanes and bush pilots who opened the North, fought forest fires and supplied isolated communities. You can climb into some of the cockpits.
Rarely. The excursion train leaves from here in season, but port calls generally do not allow time for the full trip, which takes a whole day.
The Canadian dollar and English on the Ontario side. Note that the twin city lies in the United States across the international bridge, and crossing the border requires proper travel documents.
Yes. The Bushplane Centre and the riverside park near the marina make an excellent pair, and the boardwalk is flat, with freighters to watch the whole way.
