Beaches and Harbours
Huron-Kinloss beaches stretch along Lake Huron's shoreline and include historic Boiler Beach and the Point Clark Beach located beside the landmark Point Clark Lighthouse.
The Community Services Department maintains the beach accesses, portable toilets, public washrooms, and information kiosks located at our beaches.
The Township takes great pride in protecting our shoreline. To ensure our shoreline is well cared for, motorized vehicles are not allowed on the beach without a permit. Sand dune destruction is not permitted for any reason. Sand dunes keep our sandy beaches, well, sandy! The Shoreline Management Best Practices Guide is a great resource to learn about all the ways we can protect our beaches.
