You've almost certainly seen the photos on Instagram. There's nowhere quite like Point Pelee, one of the most beautiful spots in this part of Ontario. It's most famous for it's 1.7km boardwalk through the marsh but has plenty more to offer. It's a bit further out from the city but you'll see that it's worth the drive.
We'll start with a stroll along the Marsh Boardwalk Trail, which offers stunning views of Lake Erie and the surrounding wetlands. This is a famous birdwatching spot and we'll look out for local wildlife like herons and turtles.
After our walk, we'll head to the beach for some sun and beach time. The park has several beaches, each with its own unique features, from sandy stretches to rocky shores.
Depending on how we're feeling we'll either hang out at the beach for the rest of the day or explore some of the many trails that wind through the lush forest in the background and cross the shore. On hot summer days, there's nowhere better to be than beside the breeze of the lake.
