Looking for a short local outing during your stay? Esplanade Park in Port Maitland offers a chance to enjoy the Lake Erie shoreline and see the Port Maitland lighthouse and pier.
Haldimand County lists Esplanade Park at 937 Port Maitland Road. Its amenities include a boardwalk and pier, lighthouse, and boat launch. The County says these amenities are not bookable and are available first-come, first-served. Check the County’s parks and pavilions page for current information and notices before setting out.
What to plan for
This is a public park visit, separate from the resort’s on-site amenities. You can make it a simple shoreline stop, take in the pier and lighthouse, or include it in a broader outing around Port Maitland. Conditions and access can change, so follow posted signs and any temporary closures when you arrive.
A few useful tips
- Check the County’s park information before your visit, especially for current access notices.
- Wear comfortable shoes and keep an eye on children near the water and pier.
- Bring only what you need and take your litter with you.
- If you plan to launch a boat, confirm the latest launch details and any applicable requirements with Haldimand County.
After your outing, return to Maitland Shores to enjoy your stay on the Lake Erie shore. See our RV and tent camping information or contact the resort with questions about planning a visit.
