Morgan’s Point Conservation Area is a significant parcel of land located in Wainfleet on the shores of Lake Erie. Visitors can explore the shoreline, unique dunes and natural plant communities.

Remnants of oak savannah prairie habitat that once covered large areas of the Niagara Peninsula are being protected at Morgan’s Point. Several other fragile species that rely on the sensitive sand dune environment can be seen along the Lake Erie shoreline.

This site is one of the few remaining public access points to Lake Erie, and also plays an important role as a stopover for migrating birds and monarch butterflies.

Morgan’s Point Conservation Area provides a unique eco-tourism venue with distinctive educational opportunities, and is a magnificent place to explore nature with a trail and boardwalk designed to minimize human impacts on the sensitive sand dunes. The lakefront bedrock shoal outcrop, sand dunes, tall grass meadow, woodlot and open areas lend to the site’s passive uses of hiking, bird and butterfly watching and nature appreciation. This conservation area is an exquisite site for the naturalist in all of us.         Season: Year Round. Hours: 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM ! Pets must be on a leash at all times. !
