Government Dock | Great Lakes Guide

Government Dock Beach is a scenic 150-meter stretch of cobble, with stunning crystal-clear waters located in the Michipicoten bay. The beach drops off quickly, creating an undertow when it’s wavy, but offers a great spot for experienced swimmers. There are no washrooms or lifeguards at this beach.
