Chapter I · Ontario · 138 places
Ontario
Tobermory sits at the tip of the Bruce Peninsula where Georgian Bay meets Lake Huron, serving as the gateway to both Fathom Five National Marine Park and the Bruce Peninsula National Park. The crystal-clear cold waters of Fathom Five contain nineteen shipwrecks at diveable depths and the otherworldly Flowerpot Island with its eroded sea stacks. The Bruce Trail, Canada's oldest and longest marked hiking path, reaches its northern terminus here.

An island in the St. Lawrence River just downstream of Quebec City, Île d'Orléans preserves much of the rural Laurentian landscape first settled by French colonists in the seventeenth century. Its six villages are connected by a single road ringing the island, lined with heritage farmhouses, orchards, and market gardens. The island is a significant agricultural producer of strawberries, apples, and maple products.
