There are many lovely places to visit in Tiny, Ontario including Bluewater Dunes in Southern Georgian Bay. Tiny Township is a rural community in north Simcoe County with six charming hamlets, a 70 km shoreline including thirty beautiful beaches as well as a provincial park along the eastern shore of Nottawasaga Bay. Tiny Township is rich in history dating back to the 16th century. The region is tri-cultural with a mix of French, English, and First Nations. County Road 6, or Tiny’s Main Street, is the main north/south artery from Springwater north to Thunder Beach.
Walk Along The Boardwalk To The Beach
In the southern end of Tiny at Bluewater Beach lies 7 hectares of protected land filled with beautifully restored sand dunes. The area is full of natural beauty — the dunes, beach, and at-risk species. Walk along the boardwalk to take in all there is to see. It is beautiful any time of the year and in any type of weather. The night skies are stunning and with the right camera you can capture amazing photos of the Milky Way. Bluewater Dunes in Southern Georgian Bay is definitely a must see stop on this scenic route!
Originally the dunes were neglected as a dumping ground, but local residents and the Lake Huron Centre for Coastal Conservation joined forces with the Township to restore the area. It is a quiet, peaceful, and beautiful place to walk along the beach while sipping a coffee or your drink of choice. You can watch the most incredible sunsets any time of the year. The efforts of so many people and organizations to save the dunes and the beach from devastation have resulted in the return of the wetlands, wildlife, frogs, sandpipers and hopefully some Piping Plovers. There is a sandy beach with beautiful clear blue waters for you to enjoy!
Grab A Bite To Eat Or A Treat!
About 4 km from the dunes in Wyevale stop at the convenience store, Jug City, for a soft serve ice cream cone. They are very generous with their portions. Plus, it’s nice to sit after wandering along the beach. If you are really hungry and looking to enjoy a meal drive along County Road 6 to Perky’s Fish and Fries in Perkinsfield. This seasonal outside style eatery is a treat! Sit and enjoy a delicious meal at one of their picnic tables. They have the best fish and chips with fresh caught pickerel, fries and coleslaws. Yum!
