Sauble Beach
Where: Near Owen Sound, Ont. on Lake Huron, a two-hour drive from Toronto and London.
Length: Sauble Beach, which means "Beach of Sand," stretches into 11 kilometres of gold sand along the clear waters of Lake Huron.
Features: As the second-largest freshwater beach in the world and facing west into the sunset, Sauble Beach has warm waters ideal for swimming. Attractions are available for all ages including amusement parks, bars, playgrounds, and go-karts.
What makes it special: A fisherman's paradise. In the spring, large rainbow trout can be seen thrashing up the Sauble River Falls and in the summer, small mouth bass and perch are in abundance. While this beach attracts quite a crowd during the hot days of summer, it transforms into a quiet winter escape with 3,000 kilometres of snowmobile trails as well as cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.
