This Ontario City is About to Become a Cruise Destination as Great Lakes Cruising Takes Off

Port Colborne, located on the northeast side of Lake Erie, near Niagara, is the latest docking site for Great Lakes cruises. Cruise lines Viking Cruises and Victory Cruise have already added the city to their itinerary lists, with others expected to follow. “We are excited to welcome guests to Port Colborne and showcase all our city has to offer,” said Port Colborne Mayor Bill Steele. “We are working with experts in Great Lakes cruising and the St. Lawrence Seaway to prepare for this increase in activity and utilize the opportunity it provides to bring tourists closer to local businesses and the community.” Great Lakes cruises typically have anywhere from 180 to 240 passengers on board, and sail through the St. Lawrence Seaway, allowing guests to explore the lake’s shorelines along the way. Plans are in place to develop Port Coulborne’s waterfront and Welland Canal to create a new disembarking system.
