Honey Harbour Canada; Georgian Bay Township the 30,000 Islands
Honey Harbour Canada is part of
Georgian Bay Township and is found on the eastern coast of Georgian
Bay.
Defined by its scenery Honey Harbour is rustic and ideal for boaters
because of the easy access to both the bay waters and in land lake
systems.
If you like remoteness over a busy cottage town this is the place to
visit. One general store and frequent bear sightings make a sharpe
contrast to the cottage country our family is familiar with.
Just north of Port Severn, this area is known to boaters as a gateway
to not only Georgian Bay but also the 30,000 Islands and the Trent
Severn Waterway that leads into the Kawartha lakes.
Some of the attactions in the area include the Georgian Bay Biosphere
Reserve
that encompasses the largest island archapelego in North American Great
Lakes. This area is known locally as the 30,000 Islands and there are
many tours available to admire the Canadian Sheild Bedrock and forest.
This area is also home to the Georgian Bay Islands National Park. The
park
is accessable by boat only. The largest of the islands of the National
Park is Beausoleil and it has overnight and day docking as well as
camping facilities.
Don't want to camp? There are cottage resorts on the mainland and the
islands. Try family owned Picnic Island which has 8 cottages and 80
campsites. This island even has its own grocery store.
Boat cruises are common in these waters. Tour companies depart from a
number of different harbours. The one above the "Miss Midland" departs
from Midland and tours around the National Park.
Looking for trips out of Honey Harbour? Try the Daytripper which runs
daily, save Wednesdays, in the summer months to Beausoliel Island.
Honey Harbour is found at the south eastern shore of Georgian Bay.
