This world class rowing facility is located in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada in the historic waterfront village of Port Dalhousie. This national and international centerpiece of rowing was constructed on Martindale Pond in 1903 as a permanent venue for the Royal Canadian Henley Regatta.

The facility has hosted multiple international events including World Championship events in 2010, 1999, and initially in 1970. The facility has a fully buoyed, 8 lane 2000m course that was built on the location of the first Welland Canal.
