With its bright blue lounge chairs and parasols, soft sand and misting stations, this swish urban beach is a total treat.

Life’s a beach in Montréal, especially in the Old Port! Just five minutes from downtown, the Clock Tower Beach on the quay of the same name, offers sun, sand and a unique holiday atmosphere.

The Clock Tower Beach features heaps of soft, silky sand, lounge chairs, colourful parasols and a wooden boardwalk. While swimming isn’t allowed, refreshing mist stations set up along the beach take the edge off of the summer heat.

Located at the base of the Clock Tower, the beach affords a spectacular vantage of the St. Lawrence River, the Jacques-Cartier Bridge, Île Sainte-Hélène and Old Montréal.
