Map of Cook's Bay, Ontario, Canada

Cook's Bay was named by John Graves Simcoe, the Lieutenant-Governor of Upper Canada, for James Cook, who had served as Master aboard the HMS Pembroke in 1759 under the command of Captain John Simcoe, the Lieutenant-Governor's father.

Cook's Bay is southern Ontario's year round playground attracting locals and visitors from hundreds of miles away. For an inland lake it has the most consistent winds year round in Ontario and attracts windsurfers and kiters in all four seasons to play on the water and the ice.
