Ancient legend says that Manitoulin Island, situated in northern Lake Huron, was created as the home for the Great Spirit (G'Chi Mnido)/ This accounts for the unique and magnificent natural beauty of the area. Just north is the LaCloche mountain range, presenting some of the best sightseeing in Ontario, whether you are driving, walking, hiking or biking. The entire area is especially spectacular when our striking red autumn colours arrive - offering scenery literally unmatched anywhere in the world.

Bring your golf clubs if you are a golfer - Brookwood Brae Golf Course offers you a challenging round of golf, plus delightful views of lake Mindemoya.

Fishing and hunting opportunities abound, year-round. Whether fishing from a dock or from a boat in a small lake or deep-water fishing in Lake Huron, we have an experience for the whole family. In winter our geography presents the best and most exhilarating snowmobiling experiences in Canada, and anglers can explore our world class ice fishing.

The Island alone boasts over 100 lakes, so bring your swimsuits if you are visiting during our warm summers.

Dozens of marinas dot the shores of Manitoulin and the North Channel - ranked as one of the top five boating destinations in North America!
