We Went to the SOUTHERN TIP of Canada! 🇨🇦 Point Pelee Day Trip from Toronto

The southernmost tip of mainland Canada, waves crashing in from both sides, and a view over the whole forest 🌊🇨🇦 We drove about four hours from Toronto for a day trip to Point Pelee National Park, way down in the southwest corner of Ontario on Lake Erie. We started at the Visitor Centre, took the free shuttle down to the Tip, and walked through the forest until the trees opened up onto Lake Erie. At the Tip, the land keeps getting narrower until it's just sand and waves coming in from both sides. On the way back we climbed the 24-metre Tip Tower (144 steps!) for a view over the forest, and we ended the day on a quiet beach under blue skies. 📍 Point Pelee National Park, Leamington, Ontario (about 4 hours from Toronto) 📅 Filmed July 20, 2025 ⏱️ CHAPTERS 0:00 Intro 0:13 The drive from Toronto 0:44 Visitor Centre 1:18 Shuttle to the Tip 1:31 The trail to the Tip 2:18 The Tip: southernmost point of mainland Canada 4:23 Tip Tower 5:08 One more beach 5:32 Thanks for watching! 💡 Tips if you're visiting: • Park at the Visitor Centre and take the free shuttle down to the Tip (about 2 km). • Don't swim at the Tip: the currents there are dangerous, and the signs mean it. • Wear sandals or water shoes so you can stand in the waves at the edge. • Climb the Tip Tower for the best view of the forest and Lake Erie (144 steps). • There's a park entry fee, or use a Parks Canada Discovery Pass. #PointPelee #PointPeleeNationalPark #LakeErie #Ontario #ParksCanada #DayTrip #CanadaTravel #AARoams
