Flowerpot Island Cruise
Towering cliffs, strange rock formations, numerous caves, dense
forest, glens, meadows, and flowers all surrounded by crystal clear
water make Flowerpot Island one of the best attractions on the
Peninsula.

tobermory.org.
The G+S boat will depart from Little Tub Harbour for a 2 hour cruise.
The highlight of this cruise will be a tour around Flowerpot Island.
The cost is $25/person. Larger groups (up to 12 people) will
have the entire boat to themselves. Perfect for kids groups, large
family groups, and groups of friends. |

Cove Island Lighthouse Tour
The Cove Island light was first lit on October 30, 1858, following a
delay in the shipping of the lens from France. The fuel first used was
sperm whale oil! Today the light is electrically powered thanks to a
submarine power cable linking Cove Island to Tobermory.
For more information about the lighthouse, visit
tobermory.org.
The G+S boat will depart from Little Tub Harbour for a 2 hour cruise.
The highlight of this cruise will be a tour of the east shore of Cove
Island and the Lighthouse at the northern end.
The cost is $25/person. Larger groups (up to 12 people) will
have the entire boat to themselves. Perfect for kids groups, large
family groups, and groups of friends.

The Sweepstakes
Sweepstakes (also known as Sweeps) was a
Canadian
schooner built in
Burlington, Ontario in 1867. It was damaged off Cove Island then
towed to Big Tub Harbour, where it sank in September 1885. The remains
of Sweepstakes lie in Big Tub Harbour.
For more information about the Sweepstakes, visit our
dive sites map.
The G+S boat will depart from Little Tub Harbour for a 45-minute
cruise. This option is perfect for anyone with limited time.
The highlight of this cruise will be the shipwreck itself. You may
see divers or snorkelers while you are there. You can feed the
ducks and look for fish. The Sweepstakes is a "must see" while in
Tobermory and is not accessible from shore because it is all private
property.
The cost is $15/person. Larger groups (up to 12 people) will
have the entire boat to themselves. Perfect for kids groups, large
family groups, and groups of friends.

Customized for your group
Every year G+S is host to the local kids groups. We take all three of
our boats to a different
location and moor them together to have a barbeque on the boats and see the area we call home from a
different point of view. Let us take you and your group or family on a
sightseeing adventure that is all your own. Each boat holds a maximum of
12 for a total maximum of 36 people. Call to get group pricing and
potential location suggestions.
