"Niagara Falls and Marineland Canada" Niagara Falls by janika

Niagara Falls Travel Guide: 1,437 reviews and 3,574 photos

One of the seven wonders of the World

You must visit Niagara Falls when traveling across Canada.

It is very fascinating, beautiful, scary, wet, big and loud, all at the same time. Before the white people colonized this land, the native Indians used to go down the falls with their canoes, often sacrificing them selves and dieing from their injuries. You don't see the bottom of the falls from the clouds of water splashing everywhere, but there are huge rocks at the bottom.

Please be sure to check out my Niagara Falls at Spring Video!




Now that I mentioned the falls, I shouldn't forget mentioning the World famous Marineland Canada. This place is a zoo and an amusement park. Two in one. This page will include a little bit of both, since Marineland Canada is located at Niagara Falls as well. Not far from the falls it self.

Best to go at Spring or Fall

In the Summer time there are so many people at Niagara falls, You can't even get near the falls, so it's best to go in the Spring time or Fall, like September or October. We were there this April the last time and it was a pleasant experience. We could actually find parking near the falls which was nice. This is usually not possible during the Summer time. The only back draw is that boats only operate Summer time and MarineLand is still closed if you go too early.

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Fascinating, Lot to see, clean, safe, easy to approach.
  • Cons:Expensive, crowded, humid in summer time.
  • In a nutshell:Go and see Marineland when traveling to Niagara Falls!

    Wow that Maid of the Mist is quite some boat ride, don't blame you for not using your camera. Didn't know about the tower or Marineland. An amazing sight.. Very useful info tks.

    OK, some says it is all one big tourist trap but it seems to be nice and the marine land seems great too.
