Area Guide

Waterfront living in an idyllic setting

Lake • parks • history • waterfront •

Living in Whitby means settling into a town where the glint of Lake Ontario meets well‑treed streets and a pair of charming heritage downtowns. You might find yourself strolling along the waterfront at the award‑winning marina or winding through Rosedale Park on your way to cafés, small shops, or bustling market squares. Life here blends quiet neighbourhood peace with easy access to green trails, community centers (like the Whitby Civic Recreation Complex and Iroquois Park Sports Centre), and the GO train into Toronto.

Whitby also benefits from several notable educational and cultural touchpoints. Trafalgar Castle School, housed in a striking historic Elizabethan‑style “castle” dating back to the 1860s, still educates girls from grades 4 to 12. The town boasts a vibrant arts and sports scene, from the Station Gallery and Whitby Courthouse Theatre to the Whitby Yacht Club and the Brooklin Redmen lacrosse team—reflecting a strong sense of both history and ongoing community pride. The town’s strategic vision puts forward naturally beautiful green spaces, a vibrant waterfront, and thriving downtowns as central to its identity—meaning Whitby isn’t just somewhere to live but a place to belong.
