Toronto 
Tiny Township is part of the north end of Simcoe County and covers part of the Georgian Bay Shoreline.
This natural and quieter part of southern Ontario is a wonderful escape from any busier part of the province. The beach vibes around Tiny are relaxed and slower-paced, leaving space for things like picnics, hikes, bike rides, and sunbathing.
Tiny Beach Road follows the Georgian Bay shore to reveal beach towns, public sandy spots with parking, and small family attractions. Toward the north end of Tiny is a large Provincial Park that can offer an entire weekend’s worth of fun and recreation.
Water Adventures & Beach Experiences in Tiny
The Tiny municipality and township take up a great amount of shoreline area along the Georgian Bay to provide a few different beaches and beach towns to visit.
- Bluewater Beach is a popular spot on the south end of Tiny and north end of Wasaga. Enjoy walks along the expansive boardwalk trail, sunbathing, and a simple beach experience.
- Jackson Beach Park is a bit larger and offers more amenities like picnic areas and tables, accessible beach access, a playground, and a boat launch.
- Balm Beach is Tiny’s beach town area and offers more off-the-water places to dine and family attractions like go-karts and mini golf.
- Awenda Provincial Park on the north end of Tiny offers even more beach experiences! This Georgian Bay park has three beaches on the east side of its Methodist Point viewing area and a fourth beach on the west side. And at the day-use parking area, you can rent your own canoe to take on the park’s smaller Kettle Lake.
- Create your own adventures on the Georgian Bay waters with the help of Diverse Boat Rentals & Tours. For tours, they offer private boat rides and sunset tours. And for rentals, take your pick between jet skis, kayaks, canoes, paddleboards, floating mats, pontoon boats, or fishing boats.
- For those with their own canoes or kayaks, the Tiny Marsh Provincial Wildlife Area is a great place for kids or people new to paddling.
