Wasaga beach Provincial Park is one of the few tourist spots in the world that are packed with visitors throughout the year. Around 2 million tourists visit the town of Wasaga Beach every year. The pristine freshwater beach and numerous other attractions have turned into one of the top destinations in North America. Yet, this was not always the way. The area where the town of Wasaga Beach stands today used to be a wasteland and farming was not possible because of the sandy soil. There were no natural resources that could have been developed. Nobody would have guessed that in the future it would be one of Ontario’s fastest growing communities.

Wasaga Beach is a small town but has everything a modern tourist destination does. Here, you can find accommodation in various types of hotels, inns, and B&Bs. They are all loaded with modern facilities but the idyllic cottage inns are still the main attraction. You can rent the entire cottage for a period of time, just like you would rent a hotel room. In these beach cottages, you are free to find your own ways of enjoying your holiday. You can have a good time with your family or friends while cooking a barbeque or just doing nothing. Here you can lead a lifestyle that you want. Beach cottages are not like conventional hotels that provide all the services and facilities and you just sit idle in your hotel room.

Aside from the waterfront at the Wasaga Beach Provincial Park, you can enjoy many other attractions, events, and sports around the year. Summer events are the specialty here. As the heat rises, tourists from all around the world start to gather here. Small events like beach volleyball competitions, sand-castle building contests, and amateur bodybuilding contests are held several times. Anyone can take part in them and have a good time. For people with different interests like kite-flying or sand sculpting, you will find some events too. Of course, relaxing at the beach and soaking in the sunlight is always an option.

Apart from small events, there are some big and international level events also organized here. Blues music festival, bike rallies, parades, and many more events are organized that attract tourist from far off places of the world. What’s more, you can also enjoy the attractions around the town as well. They include historic tours, a paintball arcade, an 18-hole golf course, a themed mini-golf course, and many more. There are a number of beach activities like surfing and jet-skiing among a host of other ones.

Activities like skiing, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing including a famous sledge festival are attractions in the winter. There is no scarcity of things to do in Wasaga Beach. You can also enjoy watersports like kayaking, kite boarding, fishing charters, boat cruises, canoeing, etc. You can do almost anything whether for the experience or to have a fun time participating in the friendly competitions.

Renting a beach cottage in Wasaga beach is easy. You can contact a holiday or travel company or book it directly. Check the reviews before you book. Remember that if you want to be pampered and have room service at your beck and call, a cottage is not the place for you. If you want a private place with the option to relax in a garden, have a barbeque, and willing to cook your own food or dine out, there is not place better.
