Travel

Where do I fly into?

The Toronto Pearson International Airport is about a 2.5 hour drive away from Sauble Beach. Toronto is a really fun city to explore so make a trip out of it if you're coming through! The Detroit Metro Airport is about a 4 hour drive from Sauble Beach. The drive along Lake Huron is beautiful and very nostalgic for Sara.

Do I need a passport?

Yes, make sure it's not set to expire within 6 months of September 2025 or you might have trouble crossing over. Also be sure to apply as soon as possible, sometimes it can take a while. Kids under 16 only need proof of US citizenship. If you're bringing your dog make sure you have an up to date rabies certification!

What can't I bring across the border?

No weapons, weed, fruits/veggies and raw meat.

Do I need to exchange money?

Most everywhere takes card with the exception of American Express, which is not as commonly accepted at smaller shops in Canada. Make sure to let your bank know you're traveling out of the country so they don't flag any charges! The good news is the American dollar is worth more than the Canadian dollar, so usually everything is around 20% less for us than it's marked.
