Whitby Harbour Marina

Highlight • Monument

Whitby Harbour is a historic and important port on Lake Ontario. It is known for its sheltered basin, which facilitated regional trade, particularly grain exports, in its early history.
Today, it is a central hub of the town of Whitby, serving both commercial and recreational purposes. The marina offers over 300 berths and is home to the Whitby Yacht Club. (Visit June 4, 2025)

Paradise Beach

Highlight • Beach

Paradise Beach is a small lakeside spot with beautiful views across Lake Ontario, a sandy shoreline, and easy access to the Waterfront Trail. The beach has a quieter feel than some larger waterfront parks, with picnic areas and space for walking, cycling, and fishing along the lakeshore. It’s an ideal place for a break or lunch, with several benches to relax and stay a while.

Waterfront Park

Highlight • Rest Area

Waterfront Park is a large lakeside greenspace, and is part of Ajax’s six-kilometre waterfront corridor, with open lawns, beaches, wetlands, and picturesque shoreline views. The park is connected by a paved multi-use section of the Waterfront Trail that passes through natural and maintained areas, making it popular for walking, cycling, jogging, birdwatching, and lakeside recreation, and is one of Ajax’s main outdoor gathering places.

Veterans' Point Gardens

Waterfront Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Waterfront Trail follows the shoreline of Lake Ontario, and is part of the larger 900-kilometre Great Lakes Waterfront Trail, connecting waterfront parks, beaches, wetlands, and scenic viewpoints across the city. This paved, flat section follows a quiet stretch of shoreline, passing marshy areas, with plenty of panoramic lake views, and waterfront greenspace with a more relaxed, less developed feel than the busier central waterfront.

Operation White Heart

Highlight • Monument

Operation White Heart is a mental health and suicide awareness project. It uses simple garden materials like mulch and white stones to create a white heart. The City of Ajax installed an Operation White Heart in Rotary Park on October 17, 2024. The initiative originates from a program in New Brunswick that began in 2021.

Rotary Park Boardwalk over Duffins Creek

Highlight • Bridge

The 140-meter (460 ft) long Rotary Park boardwalk over Duffins Creek at its confluence with Lake Ontario was completed in June 2021. The boardwalk replaces an older pedestrian bridge built in the early 1990s. The new, elevated boardwalk was designed to be set back slightly from the marsh, making it more resilient to flooding.
