Stearns wharf is known to grab people’s attention for fishing, walking around, and taking pictures at the end of the pier. When you see people either walking or driving their car on the pier, it always seems like a place to stop by for whoever is new and driving around the town, they see that people are going on there to look at something so they would follow to.

Captain Henry Bayfield surveyed Georgian Bay and the bay of Parry Sound in 1822 giving many of the modern names to the bays and islands he found including the name Georgian Bay after King George IV.
