Tourist Guide Sarnia:

Sarnia is located in the south western part of part Ontario in Canada. It is one of the largest cities on Lake Huron where the Great Upper Lakes gets empty into St Clair River.

The city got its name from Guernsey which is a Latin name in the Channel Islands off the coast of Normandy in France. Sarnia is also one of the largest communities in Lambton County. The port of Sarnia still holds an important center for lake freighters that carries cargoes of grain and petroleum products. It became a prominent water port in the year 1920s with the construction of many shipping facilities that still exist today.

The city of Sarnia has undergone many changes right from an Indian hunting ground to an large industrial center with upcoming settlements. Earlier the city was known as The Rapids.

The climate of this place can be termed as mild as per Canadian standards. Usually the winters are cold and summers are hot and humid.

The population of this place comes to 71,419 according to 2006 census.

Sarnia has the worst restaurants I have ever seen. Even the new ones are just awful. Limbo has only high chairs (I outgrew those when I was four years old) making it very uncomfortable for those of us who have sore knees. Everything is geared for the very young in this town. There are no bicycle lanes making it terribly dangerous to ride a bike. We moved here from Montreal two years ago and we love our apt. on Sandy Lane. We love the lake and that is what keeps us here. We like the Imperial Theatre and after enjoying a great evening there, we sometimes would like to stop at one of ... More the bars for a drink but we don't because we don't drink and drive. We can't leave our car on the street overnight if we take a cab home because it's against the law.

Sarnia is 70% wonderful. Our parks are great. The waterfront is cold in Winter but lovely and well cared for in Summer. People are generally friendly and helpful and our Mayor is a real visible person who takes his job seriously. Transit is inadequate for a lot of Sarnians. Shopping is not the best and for friends from out of town getting here can be a challenge.

I agree with Judy LeBlonde, but if you are interested to go out for a pleasant evening without high chairs and loud music try out MAISON ST-AUBIN on Murphy and Lakeshore. What a pleasurable evening we had. It is vermuch like Montreal. Exeptional Food perfect service and wonderful music. We are making a point of having an elegand dinner once a month.
