A glimpse into Harbour West Marina, HOPA Ports
Situated within Hamilton’s evolving waterfront lies Harbour West Marina, a popular destination for anyone looking for the scenic views of Lake Ontario. A short walk from Hamilton’s historic downtown, the marina is more than a place to dock boats, it serves as a gateway to everything the city has to offer.
Each year, nearly six million people travel to Hamilton, collectively spending about $810 million, a testament to the city’s growing allure to tourists.
Harbour West Marina’s location is unique. Whether you’re interested in roller-skating, exploring historic ships, strolling along scenic trails, or indulging in the diverse culinary scene on James Street North, they’re all just minutes away.
The marina is also celebrated for its warm community. In 2024, Harbour West Marina hosted two Boater Appreciation events with live music, excellent food, and vibrant energy. “These events celebrate the summer season and our boating community,” said Rory McGuinness, manager of Harbour West Marina.
With top-notch facilities and a team that feels like family, it’s no wonder many boaters have called Harbour West Marina ‘home’ for years. The marina offers meticulously maintained facilities, including modern docking systems, clean restrooms, and convenient access to supplies and services. After a day on the water, guests can easily explore the vibrant urban scene, from the eclectic mix of shops and galleries on James Street North to the city’s historic landmarks.
