Northwinds Beach

Overview

Northwinds Beach is near Collingwood on Georgian Bay's south shore. The beach faces north with significant fetch across the bay. The Collingwood-Blue Mountains area is a major recreational destination in Ontario (skiing in winter, beach in summer).

Accessible beach with parking. Sand launch. North and northwest winds are most favorable. Close to Wasaga Beach but offers a different setting, closer to Collingwood.
