Review & FAQ:
Lake Ontario is another one of the five Great Lakes. The lake is partially located in Canada and the United States and is the last in the chain of lakes. By way of the Saint Lawrence River Lake Ontario has an outlet into the Atlantic Ocean.
A number of cities border the lake, especially on the Canadian side where it is quite developed. The American side is somewhat more rural except for the area around Rochester, New York. There are several beaches on the lakeshore that offer plenty of opportunities for sunbathing or taking a dip in the lake. Boat tours are available as is fishing and other recreational activities.
