Mondays are my hubby's day off and so we try to make it a point to do something we all enjoy. So yesterday, we decided to go a little further from home to visit the Fathom Five National Marine Park in Tobermory, Ontario (about 4 1/2 hrs from the GTA).
We truly enjoyed the day. We were quite active which we all enjoy. We walked around Little Tub Harbour and enjoyed some Beavertails before our boat tour. Our boat tour took us to two shipwrecks that can be seen above water (the other ships can only be seen by scuba diving) in Big Tub Harbour. Then we were dropped off at Flowerpot Island to hike the trails. And because we are just plan crazy, instead of sticking to the trail for 1st part of it, we ended up climbing up and down rocks to get from one flowerpot to the other. It was a bit challenging and definitely was fun! :) Then we followed the trail to the cave and Castlerock Lookout which we actually had to run because we were running out of time and would miss the boat back. That was challenging! lol.
We enjoyed some YUMMY Fish & Chips (one of the best I've had!) before the drive back. This place will definitely be a regular mini-getaway for us. There are still many areas to visit here and will definitely visit the other national park that's near by. This place is a definite must to visit.
