Camping in Bruce Peninsula guide

Bruce Peninsula is home to tall Niagara Escarpment cliffs and pristine blue Georgian Bay waters, which means campers can fish, hike, golf, snowmobile, and boat, depending on the season. Nearby Georgian Bay Islands National Park draws visitors from all over the country to explore its 11 maintained trails, including wheelchair accessible walking trails. Campers will find lots of nearby campsites, cabin rentals, and RV parks with full electric, sewer, and water hookups and wifi in the area, as well. Campgrounds and lodge rentals also abound near popular attractions like Driftwood Cove in Tobermory with its ancient trees as well as the celebrated Sauble Beach where beach camping leads to swimming and sailing on the open waters.

Where to Go

Georgian Bay Islands National Park

Sixty-three islands make up Georgian Bay Islands National Park—part of a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Beausoleil Island is the park’s largest at 8-kilometres long and features lakeside vistas that campers can hike or bike to for the night. The park also hosts 130 campsites among several campgrounds—some are more primitive while others offer amenities such as flush toilets and showers. Keep in mind that the park is only accessible by boat or kayak, but there are shuttle boats available.

Tobermory

Scuba divers flock to Tobermory, the “freshwater scuba diving capital of the world.” Explore Bruce Peninsula Grotto, a wave-carved cave in the bay. Or explore shipwreck dive sites at Fathom Five National Marine Park. Then visit nearby Driftwood Cove to witness its famed stands of cliff’s edge trees—among the oldest trees in eastern North America. Its distinctive ecosystem is also home to rare orchids, like the ram’s head lady slipper. Bruce Peninsula National Park is renowned for the Bruce Trail that meanders along the crags of the Niagara Escarpment. Find rustic cabin rentals, lodges, and campsites with washrooms and picnic tables throughout Tobermory—near the cove and other attractions.
