Port Burwell is a quaint community along Lake Erie that boasts a 2.5 km-long stretch of sand abutting warm, shallow waters that are ideal for swimming, and are regularly recognized with Blue Flag status for their exceptional quality. But beyond being a spot to immerse yourself in some stunning Ontario wilderness, Port Burwell's most unique and imposing feature is the HMCS Ojibwa, a 90-metre-long, 2000-ton submarine that was once a key asset of the Canadian military. Built for the British Royal Navy, the Oberon-class sub ended up in Canadian hands, serving for more than 30 years with the Royal Canadian Navy and the Canadian Forces Maritime Command. To that end, here's hoping that more adventurers, both history buffs and nature lovers alike, get out to Port Burwell (we've heard there's great ice cream there, too). The HMCS Ojibwa is located in a green space at 3 Pitt Street, just seconds from the public beach in Port Burwell, and is about a two-hour drive from downtown Toronto.
