COSMOS Yacht Charters | Georgian Bay's National and International Designations:

Living testimony that Georgian Bay is a unique place on the planet is the fact it has been granted several prestigious national and international designations. Every one of these designations requires stringent qualifications to be honoured and awarded such notoriety. Be sure you have this exceptional area of Ontario on your ‘Bucket List’, as you will be undoubtedly very glad you did!

GEORGIAN BAY most notably has:

• Two United Nations (UNESCO) designated Biosphere Reserves – the Bruce Peninsula and the 30,000 Islands - two on Georgian Bay - with only 16 in all of Canada;

• Two Canadian National Parks (out of 3 in Ontario and 44 in Canada);

• Canada’s first National Marine Park and Marine Conservation Area – 'Fathom Five' - in Tobermory;

• 16 Ontario Provincial Parks;

• The world’s largest fresh water ECO Museum;

• Largest freshwater archipelago in the world (30,000 Islands).

It is no wonder why sailing Georgian Bay is an exhilarating experience that brings many boaters and visitors back time and time again throughout their entire lifetime!
