Lake Superior

One of the most beautiful lakes in Ontario is Lake Superior is the oldest of the Great Lakes. Ships have infamously sunk in this enormous, deep, and chilly lake. It was the one the Voyageurs feared the most throughout their time. Most Ontarians see it as a location for recreation, adventure, and even pleasure.

The lake can be as still as a mill pond during the summer, particularly around July. Lake Superior is a beautiful example of nature. Numerous of the Group of Seven's most well-known works were inspired by the rocky shoreline, which is both breathtakingly beautiful and harsh. Smooth pink rocks may lead to the most crystal-clear water.

Some of Ontario's most beautiful beaches can be found along Lake Superior. Without the palm trees, of course, Pancake Bay and Batchawana Bay's vast, arcing beaches are like something out of a glitzy Caribbean magazine. In the shallow areas, the water is warm and clear. You will probably return back to the shallows quite fast if you go out a little more to the cooler water.

The Agawa Bay pictographs are one of the must-see sights on this historic lake. The Ojibwe people produced the artwork, which dates from 150 to 400 years ago. You can only go to the pictographs on calm days when the waves aren't slamming into the coast. A lovely hiking track through the woodland provides access.
