We head to the unique Bruce Peninsula area in Georgian Bay to discover the waters and islands around Tobermory. We explore the fascinating ecosystem of the dolomite cliffs and learn more about Ontario's Niagara Escarpment. We also find out about Canada's only venomous snake and species at risk, the Eastern Massasauga Rattlesnake. Then we grab snorkels and explore the amazing shipwrecks of Fathom Five National Marine Park of Canada - Canada's first marine park. We learn how First Nations' oral traditions have lead to the mapping of Fathom Five. Jay tells us about the maritime history of the Great Lakes and why there are so many shipwrecks in this area. In Jay's Gee! Ology Jay demonstrates how the Niagara Escarpment was formed.
