Best patio in town. The Walker House is a family-owned Bar & Grill known for being the oldest restaurant on Lake Huron. Great food with daily specials. Try the sangria!

Don't underestimate what this tiny red building has to offer. Open only for lunch and cash only, Armen's offers some of the most consistently amazing delicious food, with bold flavours that are a world away from the usual fare in a beach town. One of my favourites is the Chicken Biryani Wrap, but everything is delicious and full of flavour.

Summer lineups at this popular bakery are a regular thing. Try their famous Bruce potato pastry or the decadent honey dipped croissants.

Sightseeing

MacGregor Point is one of the most ecologically diverse natural places along the Lake Huron shoreline. Great hiking trails. A well-known spot to look for migrating birds. The weekend following Thanksgiving Monday, Witches in the Woods celebrates Halloween and the forest creatures closely linked to it! Campers decorate their sites, trick or treat and explore nature in the fall. Winter visitors can camp in yurts, snow shoe, cross-country ski, and ice skate on a 400 metre skating oval. https://www.ontarioparks.com/park/macgregorpoint

Take a day trip to The Grotto - just over an hour's drive from Southampton.

The Saugeen Rail Trail is an 8km long year-round, multi-use trail that connects Southampton and Port Elgin. Current recreational uses include walking, hiking, jogging, cycling, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Built on the old Wellington Grey Bruce Railway line that ran in the late 1860s and early 1870s, the trail is an excellent means of transportation between these two shoreline communities.

A gorgeous paved 1 km long boardwalk directly along the beach. Plenty of places to sit and relax and enjoy the beautiful sound of the waves and the wind caressing your face. Halfway down you'll find washrooms, and at the end of the boardwalk is the famous Gerry's Fast Food kiosk.

Located in the quaint hamlet of Blythe, about 1 hour and 15 minutes from Southampton. This spectacular building is worth the drive alone, but add to it some fabulous craft beer, a beautiful patio, and great eats, and you won’t be disappointed.

Lovely rooftop patio in the newly renovated motel. Great cocktails (although a bit on the pricey side!) A small snack list is available as well.

Friday Bagpipes at sunset

Every Friday at sunset during the summer, take in the magic of the piper. The sunset piper pipes down the sunset on Southampton's beach at the flag. Come down about a half hour before the sun sets and enjoy the bag pipe music until after sunset.
