Parry Sound at a Glance
Less than two hours drive north of Greater
Toronto, Parry Sound is a popular getaway region offering plenty of outdoor
activities. While snowmobiling, dogsledding and ice fishing are popular in the
winter, the area is most visited in the summer, more than doubling the town’s
population. Overlooking the 30,000 Islands region of the Georgian
Bay, Parry Sound is not only revered for its scenic beauty, but also for its
water activities that include sailing, cruising, canoeing, kayaking and fishing
for the sometimes huge musky. Even underwater the region has its its own remarkable
assets. The local waters are a small graveyard of sunken ships, creating ideal
scuba diving opportunities. Also popular is the Festival
of the Sound, a series of classical voice and instrumental concerts, which
occurs at the end of July. A popular region for centuries, Parry Sound has a rich
history to explore that includes Ojibway Indian settlements and pioneer homesteads.
