Camping.
Selkirk Provincial Park's frontcountry campground sits a short walk from a sandy Lake Erie beach, with marsh and shoreline trails through the park. Rock Point Provincial Park, on the lake near Dunnville, runs a frontcountry campground next to bird-and-monarch migration grounds.
Inland, Byng Island Conservation Area near Dunnville offers Grand River camping, swimming, and paddling access.
The brief.
Selkirk and Rock Point bookings flow through the Ontario Parks reservation system; Byng Island bookings flow through Grand River Conservation Authority; Haldimand Conservation Area at Selkirk is booked through LPRCA. Selkirk is the lakeshore-beach anchor — frontcountry sites within walking distance of the sand beach and Wheeler's Walk marsh boardwalk.
Rock Point sits next to the migration grounds — a working campground for bird-and-monarch watchers in spring and fall as well as a regular Lake Erie family campground in summer. Byng Island is the Grand River option — quieter river-based camping with paddling and swimming on-site near Dunnville.
May through October is the typical camping window.
