  1. I live near Belle River and living here all my life, I am very familiar with Lake Erie from Wheatley to Amherstburg which is on the mouth of the Detroit River. In addition to Point Pelee there is Wheatly Provincial Park. There are beautiful sites of the Lake at the Leamington Dock, Kingsville Pavillion, Navy Yard Park in Amherstburg near the Detroit River and along the River to Windsor including the view of our new Gordie Howe Bridge which will open next year. The scenic Drive along Riverside Drive can make a lovely day trip from Leamington to Windsor with a must stop at Dieppe Gardens in Windsor along the Detroit River with the Detroit Skyline view. Possibly contacting local restaurants along Pelee Drive, Kingsville (Home of Jack Miner Bird Sanctuary), Amherstburg with it’s lovely restaurants and Navy Yard Park for a lovely stroll while eating an ice cream cone from a local store, it’s lovely shops, overlooking the Detroit River, it’s Lake freighters and continue to eating stops driving through LaSalle then on to Riverside Drive along Lake St. Clair which is a beautiful drive while spotting the freighters in a distance. A great restaurant on Lake St. Clair is the Harbour House with its outdoor cafe and closed-in patio with fire tables during the cool fall and winter days. The Harbour House was selected one of the top three of 100 restaurants in Ontario. The other two restaurants, is the Keg Restaurant across from Dieppe Gardens, overlooking the Detroit Skyline, the Sandbar Restaurant in Lakeshore (near Belle River) This can all be done in one day’s drive from Leamington. Thanks for allowing me to give you my suggestions.
