Fathom Five National Marine Park is a Great Lakes marine protected area at Tobermory, in the traditional territory of the Saugeen Ojibway Nation. Parks Canada highlights clear blue water, rugged shoreline scenery, Flowerpot Island rock formations, and world-renowned scuba diving on 24 shipwrecks.
The park is closely paired with Bruce Peninsula National Park, but Fathom Five has its own identity: marine heritage, boat access, diving, Flowerpot Island trails, lightstations, shoreline geology, and backcountry camping.
Fathom Five is a strong choice for travellers who want a water-based Georgian Bay experience. Visitors commonly plan around Flowerpot Island boat tours, scuba diving, shipwrecks, hiking, red chairs, visitor centre stops, and backcountry camping on Flowerpot Island.
It is also a park where conditions and closures matter. Boat schedules, dive conditions, trail damage, visitor centre hours, camping reservations, and marine safety can all affect the trip.
Plan around Flowerpot Island, local tour boats, scuba diving, boat tours, charter or rental options, hiking, visitor centre exhibits, backcountry camping, red chairs, guided activities, and marine heritage. Parks Canada keeps current details for fees, reservations, safety, park regulations, diving safety, business licences, permits, and visitor centre hours.
Because the park is marine-focused, check water conditions, boat access, trail alerts, camping availability, and safety guidance before travelling.
Parks Canada lists the visitor centre at 120 Chi sin tib dek Road in Tobermory. Confirm Flowerpot Island access, boat tours, dive conditions, trail closures, camping reservations, visitor centre hours, fees, permits, and safety guidance through the official Fathom Five National Marine Park source before travelling.
