Further European settlement would take another century. Following the American Revolution, Loyalist settlers trickled in slowly, and what is now Ontario was carved out of Qu bec in 1867. Most of Ontario's residents live along the southern edge of the province. Too numerous to mention all of them, we have put together a few examples of the Parks in Ontario, listed below. Camping is not permitted within the boundary of this recreation park, but there are many privately owned campgrounds, motels, hotels, and cottages nearby for visitors who wish to extend their stay.
Families enjoy swimming in the warm, shallow waters and playing on the wide sandy beach.
The park is divided into eight beach areas each with its own parking lot. While swimming is the big draw, hiking, fishing, picnicking, and canoeing on the Nottawasaga River are some other activities to be pursued in the park and area. Nottawasaga Bay is suitable for many types of watercraft, especially large motorboats, sailboats and windsurfers. Boats can be rented from one of several marinas in the Town of Wasaga Beach . Fishing is best from a boat, but you can also try your luck anywhere near the river bank within park boundaries.
