Arrive at Pointe-Claire Village early. Find a quiet spot near the waterfront to watch the sky lighten. The sun rises toward the WSW, casting a soft glow on the historic buildings.
07:31
Watch the sunrise at 07:31. The golden light begins to spill over the village around 15:51, but the initial sunrise moment is the key event.
