Georgian Bay is famous for its stunning turquoise- blue waters, especially around the eastern shore and the Thirty Thousand Islands region. The striking colour comes from a mix of: Limestone bedrock: The bay sits on part of the Canadian Shield and the Niagara Escarpment. Where the limestone is exposed, it reflects sunlight in a way that gives the water a bright aqua-turquoise glow. Clarity: Georgian Bay’s waters are remarkably clear compared to many lakes, letting sunlight penetrate deeper and bounce off pale rock or sand below. Depth changes: Shallow areas over pale stone look bright turquoise, while deeper sections shift into a rich sapphire blue. On a sunny day, it can look almost Caribbean, which is why the region is sometimes nicknamed “The Sixth Great Lake’s Caribbean”. 70% Merino Wool / 30% Mixed Fibres69″x 62″ / 175cm x 157cm, 3"/ 7.5cm fringe Wash in cold water and dry flat or dry clean
