Located on Lake Nipissing, North Bay has traditionally been a major transportation and supply centre for Northern Ontario. Samuel de Champlain explored this area in 1615 and discovered that its interconnected waterways were the fastest route from Montreal to the Great Lakes and beyond. North Bay is still a popular destination for anglers, hunters and nature lovers.
Visit the Dionne Quintuplet Museum, housed in the original farmhouse where the five girls were born in 1934. Cruise to Manitou Island, Callendar Bay or the French River in the twin-hulled Chief Commanda II. Enjoy a sumptuous dinner dockside on the Chief Commanda I restaurant. Book a lively summer theatre evening with the Nipissing Stage Company. Explore local history at the North Bay Area Museum. Take an autumn day-trip on the Dream Catcher Express and feast on the breath-taking fall panorama.
