This summer, let the Capital be your cottage. 🌊☀️

We’re soon launching two new swimming docks, further expanding safe, accessible and inviting opportunities to connect with the water.
📍 East Wharf
📍 Canadian Museum of History

These new swimming docks build on our work to make the Capital's shorelines more accessible, welcoming and enjoyable for everyone.

Whether swimming, walking, cycling, rolling, paddling or relaxing by the water, your next summer escape is closer than you think.
