The best camping near Beausoleil Island National Historic Site

Witness the long history of aboriginal use of Beausoleil Island, on Georgian Bay. The evolving landscape of the island includes evidence of ancient camps from time out of memory to a brief period as a reserve in the mid 19th century when the Anishinaabeg struggled to find a new way to live that was compatible with their traditions and with the rapidly growing Euro-Canadian settlement surrounding them.

The ideal time to visit Beausoleil Island National Historic Site is during the warmer months, from late spring to early autumn. This period offers the most pleasant weather for outdoor activities. Conversely, winter can be less inviting, with some services potentially reduced or unavailable.
