Leamington offers you a family environment nestled along Lake Erie. There is plenty to do in our quiet lakeside community. Great recreational opportunities, affordable and attractive housing, a warm temperate climate, all located in one of Canada’s best kept secrets…beautiful Essex County. Located on the 42nd parallel, Leamington shares the same latitude as northern California. Our winters are the mildest in the country and our summers are long and full of opportunity. Leamington hosts its own beach that features a volleyball court, restaurants, and fishing. Pelee Island is a short ferry ride away and offers the perfect weekend escape, featuring its own Pelee Island Winery.
