ABOUT SARNIA
Located in southwestern Ontario, the city of Sarnia provides a "small-town" community feel with the amenities of a larger city. Situated on the Canada-US border (Bluewater Bridge) and boasting panoramic views of Lake Huron, Sarnia is an ideal place to settle down while enjoying the benefits of expansive beaches, cross-border shopping, and small-town charm.
