The place was beautiful and everything was immaculate. Staff were incredibly friendly and professional, and everything when we arrived was seamless (if you had registered online, just give your name and you're good to go). Equipment was all pristine and super safe/operational.
Was worried about my fear of heights, but everything was fool-proof and safe so we didn't even notice the height. Was just the right amount of physically challenging and lots of laughs along the way. While it says there is one ride on the zip line, there are actually a bunch of other ones and all really fun (and included).
It recommends fingerless gloves, which are not necessary but would have been a bit helpful. You're mostly in the trees, so if you forget sunscreen, its not a big deal. Walking/comfy shoes are a must.
Value for price was more than excellent. Definitely want to take any visiting family members here and will definitely go back and do it again now that I know more about how it goes.
Constant unclipping and clipping in (for safety) may be a bit difficult to grasp for kids, but the instructors are great so it doesn't matter.

We saw "The Numbers Game" here and it was fabulous. We laughed and laughed. Brilliant script and of course actors. Loved the venue and the volunteers. Made for a wonderful evening.

Port Dover Lighthouse

The pier is just fabulous. Lots of fisherman catching a feast. The views of the lake are so beautiful. It's a nice walk along the pier or you can just sit and enjoy scenery. We really enjoyed out time here.

Port Dover Harbour MuseumNorfolk County TourismCultural Hotspots of Norfolk County

Reviewed By Canadian_Guy1000 - Toronto, Canada

An awesome museum, featuring plenty of interesting exhibits on the history of Port Dover and Lake Erie. I was especially fascinated by the history of shipwrecks which dot the shores of Lake Erie. The time-lapse movie on freighters traversing the Great Lakes was intriguing. The museum was undergoing some renovations—even the historical plaque on Port Dover, which I had spotted last year near the museum, is being restored. A new exhibit was added—a Kahlenberg Engine, used at one time in the majority of tugs on Lake Erie.

Port Dover such a lovely place.
Just spent amazing day on the last day of Labour Day weekend.
We had a fantastic lunch at The Beach House restaurant.
And was able to to get some great photos of our bike outside of our favourite places in Dover "On The Fringe". It's a great leather shop. Also a great place to get wonderful T-shirts and beautiful summer dresses
Can't wait until Friday October 13/17.
We will be back. lol

A must-do-tour! Absolutely fantastic tour. My husband and our friends, thoroughly enjoyed every minute. A complete showcase of not only wine and beer but everything Norfolk County has to offer; from the scenery at Inasphere Winery and Blueberry Hill Estates, the amazing people at Burning Kiln Winery to the fun atmosphere at Limburg Brewery. Congratulations to the ladies of Ride the Bine. I'm looking forward to whats offered in the future.

Rogue Tiger Charters

Reviewed By Howard M

Had the opportunity to visit Port Dover last weekend and take ride aboard the Rogue Tiger. A sale boat "aged to perfection" and meticulously maintained.
Captain Dave and First Mate Maggie were absolutely wonderful to be with as well as knowledgeable tour guides.
It was quite a different experience from taking a tour aboard a motor boat and Captain Dave's masterful handling of the vessel in somewhat gusty winds was both exciting and comforting.
It's a highly recommend trip.
.Cappy n Maggs, cant wait to "do it again"!

Nomada Charters

There is no better way to see our Port than from the water. Take a tour with Nomada Charters for just that. We have the River Rider which is available for one hour sightseeing tours on a pontoon boat. You will take a leisurely trip up Lynn Valley River and into the Black Creek Nature Reserve. Along the way you will see prestigious homes, exquisite yachts and wildlife. While enjoying the sights you will be provided with colourful commentary, peppered with interesting and comical historical lore and a little island music to go with the experience. We also provide private charters and can accommodate bus tours.

Nice little cruise down the Lynn River aboard a pontoon boat. Great narrative by the captain about the river itself, ships and Marinas as well as homes along the banks and the locals that inhabit them. Very affordable - cash only accepted - and convenient - offered many times each day. A great, relaxing way to soak up some sun away from the crowds in Port Dover!

Lynn Valley Trail

Reviewed By melaniejaneelliott - Port Dover, Canada

Absolutely beautiful Trail from Port Dover to Simcoe and beyond. Spotlessly clean, beautiful maintained trails for walking cycling strollers running. Quiet and local cyclists are friendly and respectful of Trail rules. Some visiting cyclists should read the well appointed signs. The few areas you must venture out onto the road for a short distance is not a problem as drivers are wonderful! Love this Trail!
