Wasaga Beach enjoys some of the warmest water temperatures on the shores of Georgian Bay thanks to the shallow coastal waters. The water can reach a balmy 56F in May to June with seasonal highs of around 74.4F from August to September and swimmers find the conditions exceptional. The shallow coastal waters extend for some distance so Wasaga Beach isn’t an ideal surfing spot, though kayaking is popular around the coves and islands nearby, and top class sailing on Georgian Bay is a big attraction.

Wasaga beach is on Nottawasaga Bay so summer days are warm and pleasant thanks to breezes from the water. However, in January through March low temperatures around 42.8F and windy conditions can see the waters freeze over, and heavy snowfalls occur which create perfect conditions for snowmobiling, cross country skiing and snowshoeing along the beach area.
