Hours of operation
Discovery Harbour is a gem of a historic site – staffed by knowledgeable and friendly costumed interpreters and complemented by the hull of the original H.M.S. Tecumseth in our climate-controlled museum – will reopen in May 2025. Until our regular season begins, visitors can check out our special events, plan a group tour, or book an educational program.
Science North camps at Discovery Harbour
Since 1987, Science North has been delivering summer science camp experiences to children in communities across Ontario. This year, these camps are coming to Discovery Harbour! Science North offers children the opportunity to get hands-on with real tools, engage in modern science, and most importantly, socialize and have fun with friends!
