Frying Pan Island


The trip to Frying Pan Island was awesome. Portions of the route are open to the full sweep of Georgian Bay.


The two miles rounding O'Donnell Point can be nasty in heavy southwest winds.


There is wonderful shelter in Twelve Mile Bay just ahead. We pay close attention to the narrow segments of the channel, there is granite close to the surface right outside these areas.









Frying Pan Island is a beautiful small bay and is known for Henry's Fish Restaurant.




The same family has owned and run the restaurant since 1992, and their fish is fresh and invariably tasty.




This is a destination restaurant where float planes fly in all day to deliver hungry patrons .




We all pull in for some great fish and spend the evening watching the opening of the Olympics.







Places like this makes traveling special.
