Top 10 Kid Friendly Things To Do and Attractions in St. Catharines

"Devil’s Punchbowl Conservation Area consists of an incredible geologic wonder, the gorge, and its waterfalls. The Devil’s Punch Bowl formed at the end of the last ice age when huge meltwater rivers plunged over the escarpment. There are many colourful layers of rocks in the gorge, such as Cabot Head grey shale, Queenston Formation red shale, shale dolomite and limestone."

"This tall thin waterfall pours over a deep multi-coloured gorge that's a history lesson in geology and one of the most stunning natural formations along the Niagara Escarpment. Look for the huge cross perched nearby for more spectacular views of Stoney Creek and Hamilton Harbour."

"This one might be a bit on the difficult side for young families, but we thought we would include it for the picture alone. Aside from the unique rock formations, a variety of birds can be seen in the vicinity."

"The Canadian side of the falls are known as the Horseshoe Falls and are over 50 metres high and have 2,271,247 liters of water pushed over the edge every second. You’re all prepped to visit Toronto because you know where to go in Toronto, the top Toronto tourist attractions and where to stay in this amazing city.

"The park includes an observation tower that extends over the gorge to give you a view of the American Falls and the Horseshoe Falls. Although it is one of the best views from the American side you will not be very close to the Horseshoe Falls and better views are available from the Canadian side. Looking in the other direction away from the falls you will have a view of Rainbow Bridge."

"Sights You’ll Get in Your Photo: American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls and Horseshoe Falls. If you have a taste for adrenaline and you’re wondering where to see Niagara Falls, this might just be the best place for you. The views from the Observation Tower at Niagara Falls State Park are worth the dizzying heights."

"There’s a small charge to visit the Observation Tower at Prospect Point if you’re not riding Maid of the Mist. During peak months, it’s $1.25 per person. When Maid of the mist is closed for the season, it’s free."

"Thin Man may be the brewery in Buffalo’s bunch that most fills the Instagram feeds of beer fans, and for good reason. Since opening in the Elmwood Village neighborhood in the fall of 2016—one of the four partners is Mike Shatzel, who owned the beloved Blue Monk bar—it has collaborated on standout beers with several brewers in the industry’s vanguard, including Pure Project, Aslin, 3 Sons, and Collective Arts. Solo-produced brews such as Trial by Wombat, a hazy IPA hopped solely with the Galaxy variety, and the Take Precaution imperial stout, are equally excellent."

"This place is a total gem- great staff, lots of beer options (no they don't serve liquor or wine, they're a brewery)... (905) 468-9888Order online"
