All About the Harbour City

Nanaimo Seafood Restaurants

There are a lot of restaurants in Nanaimo that take advantage of the fresh seafood that comes off the boats. Our kudos for best ambience goes to the two little floating outdoor restaurants down in the harbour.

Penny's Palapa is the more elegant of the two, serving cilantro amidst Mediterranean potted trees. Meanwhile, Troller's is recognized for its excellent fish 'n' chips, serving some of the freshest halibut around.
