THE WATERFRONT LIFE

One of the first things that comes to mind when we think of Oakville is the gorgeous lakeshore views and harbourfronts! The city’s extensive Lake Ontario shoreline boasts two harbours: Bronte Harbour and Oakville Harbour. These are the perfect places to take a stroll, cycle, walk your dog, or just take in the beautiful water views! Glen Abbey Encore is located just a 9-minute drive to the water's edge, so you'll have plenty of opportunities to enjoy the lakefront lifestyle. Read below to discover some of our top recommendations for a great day on the water.

In Oakville, you never have to look too far for parks with sweeping waterfront views. Bronte Heritage Waterfront Park and Coronation Park offer abundant opportunities for you and the family to spend a weekend or evening out. Bronte Heritage Waterfront Park is wonderfully accessible and central, just steps away from downtown. Bronte Harbour was once an old fishing village, and you can still get a sense of that historic charm as you sit and enjoy a tranquil summer evening.

If you prefer to casually dine by the water, there are plenty of choices nearby! Plank Restobar, Oakville Club, and the Cove are a few top options near the harbourfront offering a diverse range for you and your families’ palettes. Plank Restobar serves up rustic seasonal plates, gourmet pizzas and signature bourbon drinks, while the Oakville Club offers a more finer dining experience overlooking the water. If you’re really craving some excellent seafood, stop by the Cove to try their coastal selection of oysters before a sunset walk by the water. Tranquil harbour views and a delicious dinner are a timeless combination that will always be high in demand!

For those boating enthusiasts that actually want to get out on the water, there are a number of great places to keep your boat close to home at Glen Abbey Encore. Bronte Harbour Yacht Club, Bronte Harbour Outer Marina and Oakville Powerboat Club are a few of the top options nearby.
