The tip of the Bruce Peninsula! Drive up for the day and visit The Sweet Shop and watch the Chi-Cheemaun take off for Manitoulin. Take a glass bottom boat cruise or if you're feeling more adventurous take a scuba diving lesson. Finish the day off with some local, fresh fish and chips or at the new brew pub.
