Port Rawson Bay, Massasauga Provincial Park, Georgian Bay

July 29, 2015

The Georgian Bay is known as the “Land of 30,000 Islands.

We traveled 40.4 NM along the southeast rim of the Georgian Bay. We docked at Henry’s Restaurant for a few hours to enjoy their infamous Pickerel Fish n Chips, on Fish Pan Island. This restaurant is only accessible by water so we enjoyed watching the sea planes come and go.  We then went in to the Massasauga Provincial Park and anchored in the Port Rawson Bay.  We secured the stern with a rope attached to a steel rod embedded in the rocks on shore.  This area is a very beautiful forest along granite rocks and cliffs. Bear Island is just to the north of us. Garmin used his dingy to get to shore for an evening break as Charlie and I enjoyed floating in the cool waters of the Georgian Bay. Of course, today was one of the hottest days they’ve had here in years with temps reaching 94 degrees F. As the sunset, fireflies were entertaining us!
