Port Hope Visitor Guide 2019
This is a place where you can slow down. If the weekend was a place, if the weekend was a philosophy, a conversation, a memory – this is where it would be. Port Hope is a place where you can shake hands with a farmer, snuggle a goat, take a dip in a cool lake, eat a meal fresh-picked from a local field, and breathe it all in. There’s room here. There’s quiet. There’s slow. And there are more ways to enjoy your day than weekends in a year. Come enjoy craft food, drinks and sunsets by the water. Explore quaint streets and scenic country roads. It’s the weekend.

NATURAL WONDER!<br />
WATCH THE SALMON JUMP UPSTREAM<br />
ANNUAL SALMON MIGRATION | SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER <strong>2019</strong><br />
We love our coastal lifestyle and weekend feel, and time spent appreciating the nature<br />
that surrounds us. The Ganaraska River that runs through our town is a very special river.<br />
It’s one of the healthiest rivers in Ontario, populated with wild, naturally reproducing fish.<br />
And with the recent additional stocking of Atlantic salmon that are native to<br />
Lake Ontario, through conservation programs, the river’s ecosystem is thriving.<br />
It’s certainly a waterway of beauty and joy for locals and visitors who come<br />
from all over to see the salmon take on the current and swim north upstream<br />
to breed. Their natal homing instinct drives them to return to the same<br />
streams they hatched in as young fish.<br />
