Montreal in the summer

Beautiful Montreal in the summer

Montreal in the summer

Summer is when Montreal comes alive. Suddenly everyone is out. The parks are full, the terraces are bustling, tourists come from out of town and fill up the streets of Old Montreal. In summer you feel like everyone has to make up for the long winters by spending every minute being outdoors whether it be walking, biking or having a barbeque in the park.

I’ve lived in Montreal over 25 years. In this post I highlight some of my favorite photos of Montreal in the summer,
