If you didn’t know, the Grotto is one of the most visited tourist attractions in Ontario, and you need to reserve parking in advance if you want to explore it via a hike from the Grotto Parking Lot.
Tobermory Wave Adventures offers the perfect way to experience the waters of Lake Huron surrounding the Grotto on an exciting boat ride.
The views of Bruce Peninsula National Park and the Fathom Five Marine National Park are to die for. The calm, bright turquoise water offers a stark yet stunning contrast to the rugged coastline that is lined with bright green trees.
Tobermory Wave Adventures offers public and private boat tours. The tours are to the historic shipwrecks, the famous Grotto and Flowerpot Islands. The customizable private tour lets you explore the waters of Lake Huron.

The tours are limited to groups of 33 people for a more intimate experience offering close-up photo opportunities at iconic sites like the Shipwrecks, Flowerpots, and the Grotto. The company says the tours offer an interactive experience, blending Parks Canada’s philosophy with the rich stories of the Saugeen Ojibway Nation.
On private tours, you can choose your own activities and places you want to visit within the Fathom Five National Marine Park, where you can see cool shipwrecks and learn all about them. These include swim tours as well as custom tours for special events.
The tours are fun, exciting, and peaceful. You will feel closer to nature and more relaxed at Tobermory. Each group has a tour guide, and since all the groups are small, this gives you an opportunity to ask more questions about your surroundings. The guides are very helpful and will share interesting facts about this stunning area, including its history.
You can find Tobermory Wave Adventures near the War Memorial/Cenotaph in Little Tub Harbour, in downtown Tobermory.
