Overview

This is truly a one-of-a-kind experience: a chance to escape the traffic, leave the city behind for an hour or two and get out on the sparkling waters of Lake Ontario. Sailing on The Schooner Challenge from the renovated York Quay Vessel Berth at Harbourfront Centre, the 100-foot, three-masted Challenge, a replica of a 19th-century clipper schooner, offers daily trips in the harbour and out on the lake. While there, you can order a drink from the onboard fully licensed bar, or enjoy a cold or hot buffet lunch.
