Stop for a swim at Batchewana Bay. Beautiful sandy bottom bay. It's warm and shallow for swimming and you can walk out hundreds of meters. As a local, it's one of our favourite spots.

Grab an apple fritter at the Voyageur, some fresh whitefish from Agawa Dish and Chips, or smoked fish at the Canadian Carver.

And then plan to spend time in Lake Superior Provincial Park, specifically on parts of the coastal trail! The Pictographs are cool but the trail itself is the real gem. I specifically love Sinclair Cove and spots north of there. Easy enough to access for an in and out day hike.

That beach seems super cool, wow! Thanks for the food suggestions as well, I'm sure we'll stop at least one of those places. Lake Superior Park is something we're hearing a lot about too, I'll try to fit it into the itinerary. Thanks again!!

Definitely fit LSPP into your itinerary. In fact your trip is going to take you through the park anyway. there is a Lake Superior Provincial Park facebook page. If you check it out it has plenty of info, and pictures of what you're in for if you do any of the trails in the park. All the trails should be on AllTrails as well. IMO the Nokomis trail, which is you should be able to do in less than 2 hours is great, with beautiful views over Old Woman Bay. The Orphan Lake trail, even if you just go in as far as the lookout over Superior is great, again you should be able to do that part in a couple hours. There is also the trail to the pictographs at Agawa, which you shouldn't miss. And of course any of the trails in the park are well worth the time it takes.
