Port Elgin Harbour

The Port Elgin Harbour is located 4 miles south of Southampton and approximately 10 miles north of Bruce Nuclear Power Development (a large complex visible for miles offshore). To enter the harbour, Logie's Rock serves as an excellent reference point. It is marked by a light buoy and lies 2 miles west-northwest of Port Elgin. When entering the harbour, it is important to stay within the buoyed channel. Range markers with green lights lead boaters in on a course of 109. The channel depth is 10-14 feet from chart datum, but outside of the channel it quickly shallows to as little as 2 feet. Harbour Staff monitor VHF channel 68.
