Clock Tower Beach, Urban beach in the Old Port of Montreal, Canada

Clock Tower Beach is an urban beach on the Saint Lawrence River beside the Montreal Clock Tower in the Old Port of Montreal. It consists of sand, Muskoka chairs, parasols, a boardwalk, a bar, showers and misting stations. It opened in 2012 and was designed by Claude Cormier.

The name comes from the Clock Tower, a monument built in 1921 to honor merchant navy sailors who died in the First World War. This memorial structure became the defining feature of this riverside location.

Clock Tower Beach takes its name from the adjacent Montreal Clock Tower, and its French name is Plage de l'Horloge. The sand, Muskoka chairs, parasols and boardwalk were designed by Claude Cormier, who also designed urban beaches in Toronto. Admission is charged, and the site opened in 2012 after work began in autumn 2011.
