Vieux-Port

The Vieux-Port is Old Montréal's gateway to the Saint-Lawrence River. The port was once the hub of shipping and gave Montréal its powerful economic presence in Canada. In 1992, the city renovated the port as part of Montréal's 350th anniversary celebrations. Visitors of all ages will enjoy biking, walking, ice-skating or shopping at the seasonal flea market. Athletic equipment rentals available. The Old Port area is the perfect place from which to explore historic Montreal by boat. Spa fans will also find a floating spa in this area not far from the clock tower. On summer evenings, it's the site of outdoor concerts.
