Wasaga Beach Ontario Overview

Wasaga Beach is a town in central Ontario, located north of the Greater Toronto Area on the waters of the Georgian Bay. The name of the town is shared with the Wasaga Beach Provincial Park, a large area featuring beaches and trails usable both on foot and by ski and snowshoe in the winter. Wasaga Beach was incorporated as a town in the 1970s, but had been a popular tourist spot long before that point. The community has a reputation for its beaches and getaway amenities, but it has just as much to offer those seeking a new community or a place to buy a cottage.
