Awenda Provincial Park

Awenda is close to where we live. It is a very nice place to camp. Lots of campgrounds. Well maintained. Dog beach is very nice but not that big. If you have a dog and you come in late in a sunny weather you will have tough time to look for a spot at the beach. Other than that the beach is great and I don’t know why but the water is warmer than the other beaches here. Trails are great.

Hands-down our favorite provincial park. Beach #1 is huge and 2,3,4 are nice (hike/boat in). Nice wreck to snorkel off the pet beach and there are some interesting underwater debris structures off beach #3 as well. Georgian Bay is temperamental here... sometimes smooth as satin (great time for a canoe trip to Giants Tomb island or Beach #4 - about 30-50 minutes each way) and sometimes with 4'+ waves. Water is very clear but quite cold, especially early in the season. Great boulders along the beaches for climbing. Hiking trails provide great diversity including a fully accessible trail near the pet beach; rangers have an outdoor wheelchair you can borrow by the day as well if needed.

Came here in winter. Bumped into another local who mentioned the trails were the worst (in terms of snow covered) he had seen in 10 years. I still enjoyed my walk however and the picture taken next to the frozen beach was pretty cool (it was eerily quiet)

Beautiful park big sites and the Georgian Bay water is crystal clear. Recommended for groups and families. Lots of hiking trails and nice rocky beach.

Amazing place to camp and if you like peace, pick the Deer sites!!! Beach 4 is worth the walk!!!
