One of the oldest markets in Ontario, the Cobourg Farmer's Market was established in 1839 and offers locally grown and certified organic fruits and vegetables, crafts, fresh cut flowers, potted plants, meats, cheeses and breads, desserts and other delectables.
The Cobourg Farmer's Market operates on Saturdays from May to December in its historic location on the corner of Second Street and Albert Street and in the Market Building.
Built in the 1850s, Victoria Hall is the centre of history and architecture in the Cobourg. Designed by Canadian architect Kivas Tully, the three-storey building features a portico entrance, four Corinthian columns and is elaborately decorated with stone-cutter's art.
Considered one of the best on Lake Ontario, the Cobourg Marina is located only one block south of shopping, entertainment, restaurants and Downtown heritage sites. Home to yachts, sail boats, and the Cobourg Yacht Club, the Cobourg Marina is a favourite spot to take in the beauty of the lake.
A long white stretch of sand, waves lapping the shore and blue skies overhead, the Cobourg Beach is the perfect destination on a warm, Summer day. The Cobourg Beach is family friendly, with clean and shallow waters and lifeguards on duty during prime swimming hours.
