Little Cove is the essential place to visit to get away from the city!
Little Cove is a nature preserve that has a lot of inhabitants and habitats in the surrounding areas.
It's a bit of a drive from Toronto and camping isn't allowed on the grounds, so come prepared to walk for about 5 hours through the glorious trials, through rocks , through bushes, and to see the peak of water 🌊 presence.
The sunsets at Little Cove are awesome but it does get cool at night so come prepared to bring sweaters and wear comfy clothes.

Little Cove has a decent rocky beach along with a hiking trail parallel to the waterfront that passes the Grotto, though I didn't venture that far on the hike. It was of moderate intensity. Technically this is part of the Bruce Peninsula National Park and it requires a Parks Canada permit, though it appears to be the honour system. (The Grotto entrance requires going through a toll booth.) The parking lot appears to be hectic during the long weekend, with some deciding to park their cars on the side of the road leading down to the trail to the beach area.
Quiet and Serene place. It is amazing how clear the water is. Worth a visit if you are in the area
It's fantastic, awesome, brilliant, transparent water, a little walking to the cave. Do not forget your swimming suit.
You can have a lots of fun there. Please make a reservation before everything specially for parking.

Little Cove Beach, Tobermory is a beautiful rock beach with turquoise clear water. You can enjoy swimming and plenty of striking landscapes. You can canoe, paddle board, ski, swim etc. Parking is by reservation only with four time slots. A worth it visit if near the Grotto.
Extremely beautiful place. It is a small area but worth exploring. Good thing is that there are not many visitors. Clear water & white stone. It does not have beach sand just small rocks.
Parking lot has been renovated so that there are about 20 parking spots. But there is still a wait if you plan to go in the afternoon. We arrived around 9:30am on a weekday and there were cars there before us. A bit of a steep paved hike down to the cove was all there was before we got to the rocky beach. Really nice secluded feeling. Didn't go into the water myself but others did and seemed to enjoy it. Not sure if I'd go again now that I've been there once. Sitting on hard rocks isn't really my thing, and the views all around Bruce Peninsula can be had elsewhere too.
Fantastic spot for a swim. The scenery is beautiful and the pebble an rock beach is great. Very busy during the day so we went in the evening to make parking easier. Also great place for the dog to swim.
