Twenty six kilometres of Lake Huron shoreline frames the west boundary of Bluewater. The beach is a place for inspiration and reflection, fun in the sun with family and it provides the most breathtaking sunsets in all of Ontario!

Please be advised that Bluewater public beaches are open but high water levels and erosion have greatly reduced the size of our beaches, limiting the number of visitors who can access the beaches.  


Remember that all safety protocols (staying 6 feet apart and frequent hand washing) remain in place.

BAYFIELD PIER BEACH

Bluewater's most popular beach location, Bayfield's Main Beach proudly boasts a Blue Flag status, and is fully equipped with a life saving station, drive up access, parking and public washrooms.
