Looking for a quick beach getaway? If you’ve done Wasaga and Sauble more times than you can count, it’s about time you switch things up and head to Tiny, Ontario instead.

Why Tiny, you ask? Despite its name, this township is home to 70 km of gorgeous shoreline.

With their pristine sand and shallow water, these beaches are ideal for laying out and cooling off in the sun.

Take your pick of these beautiful destinations or visit them all in one day for the ultimate beach-hopping adventure.
