With a loyalist past dating back more than 200 years, Cobourg has grown while successfully maintaining its small town character and friendliness over the years - a spirit that is reflected in its stately turn-of the-century homes on tree-lined streets.

The charming shops and restaurants of downtown Cobourg are literally moments away from Harbour Walk, as is the harbour itself with its marina and beautiful boardwalk leading down to the sandy beach at Victoria Park.

There are over 20 parks in town...malls and plazas...golf courses and mini putt. Cobourg is known for its strong community spirit. Every year large numbers of people attend such annual events as the Cobourg Highland games, the Waterfront Festival, Christmas Magic Lights and the Vintage Film Festival.
