About Liverpool

Liverpool is known as the Port of the Privateer for it's lucrative privateer ships raiding enemy ships and various ports and by the turn of the 19th century Liverpool was known as one of the busiest seaports in Canada. Now it is a sleepy hollow providing year around services to the Region of Queens County and for quiet living by the sea.

Fort Point Lighthouse Park, Perkins House Museum and Queens County Museum are all but a few steps from downtown and are steeped in it's rich cultural Maritime history where one cannot help but be taken back in time. Main Street and Church street with their sun dappled historic homes are arguably of the prettiest in North America with old world, European architecture, as well as New England charm. Liverpool offers a number of amenities; schools, hospital, shopping, dentists, eye doctors, pharmacies and a new multi-million dollar Queens Place Recreation Centre.

Within minutes of Liverpool are numerous sandy beaches including Beach Meadows Beach, Summerville Beach and Hunts Point Beach as well as Western Head for surfing enthusiasts. There are also the Keji Seaside Adjunct, Thomas Raddall Park and miles and miles of walking trails.

The weather in Liverpool has four seasons with winters not as extreme as in the surrounding province and is much milder than anywhere in central Canada; cool and wet with rain and some snow. Spring comes early and is sunny with rain bringing flowers to bloom by early April. Autumn is lengthy and beautiful with the lovely colours of fall, offering warm days and cooler nights. Summer season has flowers blooming early and long into the season. Liverpool has weather, clubs and organizations for everyone; there are summer and winter sporting activities that spread inland and then back to the sea - the ever present sea.

Liverpool is a place for stepping back in time.
