Glass-Bottom Shipwreck & Flowerpot Island Cruise with Bruce Anchor

Board Bruce Anchor's renowned glass-bottom boats for a narrated voyage above the ghostly wrecks of Fathom Five, then island-hop to Flowerpot — a dual experience steeped in Great Lakes maritime history and breathtaking scenery.

What to expect

Step aboard Bruce Anchor's glass-bottom boat and settle over the viewing panels as the crew brings to life the stories of schooners, steamers and tugs that met their fate in these deceptively beautiful waters. The clarity of Georgian Bay means you can make out anchors, masts, and hull planking from the surface. On Flowerpot Island, roam the trail network, discover sea caves carved by thousands of years of wave action, and photograph the extraordinary rock stacks at golden hour. The return crossing at sunset is a highlight in itself.
