Kingsville
in Ontario's deep South

The pretty town of Kingsville is located right on the north shore of Lake Erie and is well known for its mild weather, world-famous Jack Miner's Bird Sanctuary , and for Colasanti's Tropical Gardens.

To other people, this small town is known as the most southerly town in mainland Canada.

It is also known for its close proximity to Point Pelee with its National Park, which is one of the smallest in Canada, and Pelee Island.

In Spring and Fall, this area is famous for the migration of tens of thousands of song birds as they pass through this area on their way north to their breeding grounds in the rest of Canada.

In October the town of Kingsville invites you to its annual Migration Festival which is traditionally held on the third weekend of each October.

In 2010 the festivities commence on Friday, October 15, 2010 and continued through Saturday and Sunday, October 16 and 17, 2010.

The Opening Ceremonies will take place at 6:30 pm at the Jack Miner Bird Sanctuary, Division Street, Kingsville - admission is free!

Light refreshments will be served at the Epworth United Church following the Opening Ceremonies.

This area really is a great place to catch a glimpse of a wide variety of song birds.

For birdwatchers, this area is a wonderful place to spend a holiday, even just a week-end in the spring is sure to give those avid birders their moneys-worth!
Point Pelee National Park is a great place for Hiking, Bird watching, or just taking a gentle stroll around the park.

The Marshes are great for spotting some of our rarer types of songbirds, herons and raptors.

During the summer months, from here and from Leamington you can take the ferry to beautiful Pelee Island, and from there to either Cleveland or Sandusky, Ohio.

Each September the nearby community of Cottam hosts their annual Horse Show, which is a not-to-miss event!
