Wheatley is the world’s largest freshwater commercial fishing port.

Located right on the waters of Lake Erie, Wheatley is a destination sure to please fishing enthusiasts. You can stroll around to see the large commercial fishing boats at the harbour.

Hike Metal Products, a shipbuilding/refitting/fabricating company based at the harbour, is the builder of the Maid of the Mist, the vessel used at Niagara Falls for the tours under the great Canadian waterfall. It also built a ferry for the Toronto Island Airport.
