With a popular boat launch, free boat trailer parking, and the 222 fully serviced slips at the Port of Orillia, the waterfront is a boaters' paradise. The sandy beach area draws residents and visitors alike to its idyllic setting.

This location also boasts the home of the new Port of Orillia building which provides restrooms and seating for those whose sea legs need a break.

Designated Boat Trailer Parking

Starting July 29, 2017, designated boat trailer parking will take effect and will only be available in two specific lots: the former CPR right-of-way, north of the existing refreshment vehicles adjacent Centennial Drive, and in the City-owned gravel lot off of Tecumseth Street, behind the Royal Oak Restaurant.

To ensure surrounding areas do not become congested with boat trailers, signage is being installed on neighbouring streets to identify that boat trailer parking is prohibited. All illegally parked vehicles will be ticketed and/or towed.

Signage providing notice of the new designated parking and advising of locations where boat trailer parking is prohibited will be installed on July 21 to ensure boaters receive notice before enforcement begins on July 29.
