HIGHLIGHTS: Beaverstone Bay sits just off the Georgian Bay in Northern Ontario and shares its water with Lake Huron. It is located between Philip Edward Island and the mainland of Ontario near Killarney and many sailboats enters its waters and follow the Collins Inlet seeking shelter (and sometimes overnight protection) from the winds and waves of Lake Huron. This kayaking trip starts at the Chikanishing Creek just outside of Killarney, Ontario and ends at Beaverstone Bay. In the Bay (and throughout Collins Inlet) there are numerous islands that make great campsites and you will have a chance to enjoy some swimming, fishing and the abundant wildlife while you are in the area.
