At the entrance to False Creek, Burrard Civic Marina is mainly a moorage and service stop: transient rates, pump-out, secured parking, and member showers are published by the City. The on-site ramp is members-only, so it is not a general public launch.
Club Nautique de Longueuil is a small St. Lawrence marina on the south shore, close enough to the metro to work as a practical Montreal-area stop. The useful planning checks are visitor dock availability, ramp depth, paid parking, and whether you need services such as fuel or pump-out that are not listed in the reviewed public sources.
Confederation Basin puts visiting boaters in the middle of Kingston's waterfront, beside City Hall and a short walk from downtown services. The main planning points are the transient request window, VHF 68 arrival instructions, seasonal hours, and the fact that fuel and pump-out are handled at Portsmouth Olympic Harbour rather than in the basin itself.
False Creek Fishermen's Wharf is a working harbour and visitor moorage stop beside Granville Island, managed by False Creek Harbour Authority. For boaters, the value is office-coordinated moorage, showers, laundry, shore power, pump-out, ice, and a central False Creek location, with city rules around speed, anchoring, and sewage discharge shaping every visit.
Fifty Point Marina is the serviced boating base inside Fifty Point Conservation Area on western Lake Ontario. It works for transient moorage and trailered launches, with fuel, pump-out, showers, visitor docks, and a nearby restaurant, but boaters should confirm the current navigation-channel depth before the trip.
Harrison Hot Springs Public Boat Launch is the south-end Harrison Lake ramp at Esplanade Avenue and Spruce Street, close to Rendall Park, the beachfront, and the Village public docks. The trip hinges on paying for the right 2026 pass, finding launch-lot space, keeping the ramp clear, and checking open-lake weather before leaving the village waterfront.
Lakefront Promenade Marina serves boaters on Mississauga's Lake Ontario waterfront with transient berthing, fuel, pump-out, shore power, showers, laundry, and a seasonal patio eatery. Parking and harbour rules are stricter than the surrounding park, so confirm your berth and services before you arrive.
Marina de Longueuil, also known as Port de plaisance Real-Bouvier, is a serviced St. Lawrence River stop on the south shore across from Montreal. Visiting boaters get controlled dock access, fuel, pump-out, showers, laundry, parking, and waterfront park connections, with berth details and rates handled directly by phone or VHF.
Muskoka Wharf Marina is the Lake Muskoka access point to plan around if you need a Gravenhurst launch, a short-term slip, fuel, or a public dock stop beside the Wharf visitor area. The practical checks are launch and trailer parking space, whether annual events affect slips, and whether the gas bar has posted its current season hours.
Port d'escale Marina is the Old Port stop for boaters who want to tie up within walking distance of Old Montreal and downtown. The details to settle before arrival are berth confirmation, event or weekend rates, St. Lawrence current, Old Port parking rules, and the marina's quiet-hour and basin-use regulations.
Portsmouth Olympic Harbour is Kingston's serviced west-end launch for boaters who want a city marina around the ramp. The trip planning is mostly about fees, trailer parking, fuel and pump-out timing, and marina-season hours, with Lake Ontario conditions waiting just outside the protected harbour.
Sewell's Marina sits in Horseshoe Bay at the edge of Howe Sound, serving boaters who need moorage, fuel, charters, rentals, or a paid launch. The ramp is useful but space-sensitive: trailer parking is limited, payment options vary by staff hours, and tide height can change whether launching is practical.
