Wasaga boasts the longest freshwater beach in the world
Wasaga Beach, Ontario - Just over two hours north of Toronto on the shore of Georgian Bay, you can sink your toes into the soft white sands of the longest freshwater beach in the world. The 14 km (8.6 mile), 350-acre Wasaga Beach is park of a Provincial Park, with the beach divided into eight areas, each with change facilities, washrooms, picnic tables, etc. Different areas tend to attract different crowds, with the beaches furthest to the west being the quietest. Over two million people enjoy in to this beach area each summer, and the slogan is: the beach is only the beginning. There's also water parks, volleyball tournaments, firewarks, shops, mini golf, hiking trails in the dune area, and special events, such as the Corvett Weekend each August, which draws about 500 Corvette owners from around North America. At the Nancy Island Historic Site you can see a restored schooner from the War of 1812.
