Information

Bowmanville is surrounded by farmland on three sides, and Lake Ontario to the south. Nearby forests are mainly pine, elm, birch and oak, lying in the Bowmanville Creek and Soper Creek valleys and to the hills of the north as well as to the south. Farmlands formerly covered central Bowmanville until the population increased, thus establishing a nascent downtown core by the early 19th century. The harbour area of the town is known as Port Darlington.
