General presentation
Bruce Peninsula and Tobermory
Dolomite falsies, turquoise waters and rocky islands border the tip of the Bruce Peninsula.
To understand what Bruce and Tobermory Peninsula are, you must look at Bruce Peninsula National Park, The Grotto and Tobermory. These places give us a view of a territory marked by the coastline, the shores and lakes, the forests and the natural spaces and allow us to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.
See all
For a stay of 4 to 8 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Nature park
la Péninsule-Bruce National Park
The Bruce Peninsula contrasts the clear cliffs of the escarpment with the deep blue waters of Georgian Bay. Its trails pass from forest to rocky cornices and make up one of the most striking landscapes in southern Ontario.
Place indismissible
The Grotto
This marine cave opens in the limestone cliff above the turquoise waters of Georgian Bay. The trail crosses the forest before reaching the rocky slabs; access to the cavity requires ease on irregular terrain and must be reserved for authorized slots.
Place indismissible
Tobermory
Tobermory is a small harbour located between two clear bays at the end of the Bruce Peninsula. Its wharfs are used as a departure for boats to Flowerpot Island and for exits over the wrecks of Fathom Five Marine Park.
Nature and landscape
Flowerpot Island
Two large pillars of rock carved by erosion stand at the edge of the Flowerpot Island After crossing from Tobermory, a trail connects these formations to the lighthouse and transparent coves where time seems suspended.
