Lake Ontario | Port Weller

Lake Ontario | Port Weller

Overview

Port Weller is in St. Catharines, at the northern entrance of the Welland Canal on Lake Ontario. The spot faces north toward the lake with excellent fetch. It's one of the windiest spots in the Niagara region thanks to wind acceleration between the two shores of the lake. NW to NE winds cross the lake over 50+ km.
