What's Happening
Art on the Bay
Gilly’s Snug Harbour Restaurant and Cloud Gallery are thrilled to present Art On The Bay. Join us as we showcase beautiful Ontario art for sale and on display at Gilly’s.
Outer Island Project
White Squall has been going out to the islands for stewardship activities on near wilderness campsites for over 25 years. This effort has been supported by community and conservation groups and many individuals who share the goal of minimizing human impact and providing a sense of wild places to all who take the time to explore.
We are grateful to the Georgian Bay Biosphere for creating the Outer Island Fund. This is available to any community group/individual incurring expense in their efforts to help clean and maintain campsites.

Georgian Bay Biosphere is a registered Canadian Charity (#87100 1335 RR0001). All donations over $20.00 CDN are eligible for an official tax receipt.

'Ah for just one time, I would take the Franklin Challenge!'
With a song in your heart, your loins will be all girded to join a hundred others in a joyful, jolly jaunt around the prettiest island this side of the CN Tower. Canoe, Kayak or SUP - don't matter as she's not a race sportsfans, nor a walk in the park. For lollygaggers we do have a beauty short route so you can get back sooner:) We gather early morn at Snug Harbour and in no time you can be sitting back at Gilly's with craft beer and fish & chips. All in support of the Outer Island Fund of the Georgian Bay Biosphere. Oh boy - can't wait.
Registration will open in a few weeks - but for now, start thinking of gathering your paddle clan for a fine day on the Bay.
