WELCOME TO BEAUTIFUL PELEE ISLAND—THE MOST SOUTHERN POINT IN CANADA
Pelee Island is also a well known nature and bird lover's paradise. Check out the Pelee Island Bird Observatory (www.PIBO.ca) or the Butterfly Sanctuary. Not to mention the hiking trails, Fish Point Nature Reserve, the bicycle trails, or the Lighthouse Point Nature Reserve. If fishing is your thing, Pelee offers that as well. And did we forget to mention the Winery? Pelee Island wine is becoming very well known and well respected in the world of vintners. Try it! Some varieties are only available at the Pavilion on the Island.
There are several shops and restaurants for you to visit.
So there's lots to do ... or nothing to do. It's your choice.
