Little Pike Bay

This area of the Northern Bruce Peninsula was historically used for logging and hunting in the late 19th century.

The logging business of the period required large barges to enter the relatively small bay causing ships to frequently run ashore.

The most famous incident (and the main source for tourism) involved the loss of the barge Etta and the steamer Eclipse.

The seven crewmembers of the Eclipse all perished when the steamer capsized in Lake Huron near Pine Tree Harbour.

Shipwreck enthusiasts, lured by the Etta and Eclipse disaster, have turned the small camping area into a tourist destination.
