In the southern part of the region, we sit just below the Niagara Escarpment, a World Biosphere Reserve and unique appellation that adds a well-defined style to Niagara's famous wines. Lake Erie moderates our climate, resulting in warm summers (21°C / 70°F) and cool winters (-2°C / 28°F).

Niagara's South Coast is situated on treaty land. This land is steeped in the rich history of the First Nations such as the Hatiwendaronk, the Haudenosaunee, and the Anishinaabe, including the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. There are many First Nations, Métis and Inuit from across Turtle Island that live and work here today. Niagara's South Coast stands with all Indigenous peoples, past and present, in promoting the wise stewardship of the lands on which we live.
