The only restaurant properly on the waterfront, enjoy the view from the beachside deck while you sip cocktails and sample some lunchtime munchies. Also good for a wonderful brunch or an elegant dinner. Live music in the lounge, and right outside on the band stage!

If you plan on hitting the beach or catching some waves, just walk east down 7th towards the water. There is a nice walkway that will take you to Gimli Beach Park and Boardwalk. Hopefully the snack shack is open :) 800m to the water from our place 8 min walk 2 min drive

Just down the street is Gimli Pavillion Park, they just built a new splash pad for the kids! Big events and festivals over the summer are held here. Maybe if you timed it right you can hit the midway, ride the tiltawhirl, or watch some live music on the stage. This is the centre of town during Islendingadagurinn in August! https://www.icelandicfestival.com 300m 3 min walk No need to drive :)

Highly recommend this locally funded museum. The famous "Gimli Glider," an Air Canada 767, ran out of fuel and landed on the drag strip in 1983. Original pieces of the actual plane are displayed right here in town. You can even try the simulator and see if you could make the runway! https://www.gimliglider.com 1300m 15 min walk 3 min drive

A hip shop with clothing, jewellery, books and gifts. Check out the historic elements of the store, built in 1899! We love coming here with a coffee and checking out all the nostalgic decorations, although we usually find the perfect gift for someone.
