The Nautical Village or the Frenchman’s Bay waterfront is full of possibilities. Walk along the boardwalk to Alex Robertson Park, where “Home Place” offers a moment of reflection amid sculptures by acclaimed Canadian wood carver, Dorsey James.
Children can enjoy the playground and splash pad, while adults can enjoy a game of beach volleyball or launch a kayak to explore the serene waters of Lake Ontario.
The city of Pickering also offers free concerts on Thursdays from 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm during summer.
Moreover, with local food trucks and the Port Restaurant nearby, every outing can conclude with delicious food in a celebratory atmosphere, watching the setting sun.
