15 Places to Watch the Perseid Meteor Shower in Ontario
In today’s post, I will be covering 15 different places where you can watch the Perseid Meteor Shower in Ontario. I’ve included locations in northern Ontario, Southern Ontario, and Eastern Ontario so everyone can share in the meteor shower love.
Where is the best place to see the Perseid meteor shower in Ontario?
No matter where you are in the world, the absolute best location to watch any meteor shower or night sky is a very dark sky.
Many countries including Canada, have protected zones to preserve natural darkness. These locations are known as Dark-Sky Preserves, Urban Star Parks, and Nocturnal Preserves.
Dark-Sky Preserves. Urban Star Parks, or Nocturnal Preserves are the best places to watch any meteor shower.
Dark-Sky Preserves in particular are protected areas that make a special commitment to protect and preserve the night, reducing or eliminating light pollution in all forms – making these the very best locations to watch the Perseid meteor shower.
Here are 15 of the darkest sky locations in Ontario you can visit for your next meteor shower viewing!
The first 8 locations are all Dark-Sky Preserves!
Torrance Barrens Dark Sky Preserve is Canada’s oldest designated sky preserve. The preserve is located about 30 minutes away from Gravenhurst, Ontario. The main dark sky viewing area is on the smooth granite outcrop on Southwood Road behind the Ministry sign.
This location has surged in popularity in recent years so it is strongly encouraged to arrive before dusk to ensure you can park at the preserve and secure a good stargazing location.

While you can definitely stay overnight to enjoy the night sky at any point at this dark sky preserve, Point Pelee National Park makes it a point to keep its parks open until midnight on designated nights for stargazing lovers.
If you arrive on one of the designated nights, Point Pelee National Park will also offer a seasonal star chart to help you identify any celestial objects as well.
During the peak Perseid Meteor Shower, the park is open all night long for viewers to enjoy the night sky.

Other recommended locations
If all reservations are booked or the dark sky preserves are too far away from where you live, I have also included a list of other less dark, but recommended locations that offer great night skies to enjoy the Perseid Meteor Shower in Ontario.
While not recognized by the RASC, the Quetico Provincial Park is Canada’s first provincial park to be recognized by its partner, the International Dark-Sky Association in February 2021. This park is perfect for those located in Northern Ontario near Thunder Bay or folks visiting from our neighbouring province of Manitoba to visit.

Lennox and Addington Dark Sky View Area offer a similar night sky darkness equivalent to 250 kilometres north of Toronto (i.e. Killbear Provincial Park). The major advantage to this location is that it is only 40 KM north of the nearest Highway 401 exit, making this viewing area much more easily accessible than most northern viewing areas.
The site includes a concrete pad for enthusiasts to set up lawn chairs and telescopes. This site borders the Sheffield Conservation Area and is one of the few locations near Toronto where reservations are not required to enjoy stargazing.

While there is no designated stargazing area, Purple Woods Conservation Area has been listed on Earth Sky as a recommended location for stargazing thanks to its open meadow and relative darkness thanks to the vast farmlands located nearby. At just 75 KM northeast of Toronto, this is one of the closer options for big-city dwellers to watch the Perseid Meteor Shower.

This abandoned airstrip located near Bon Echo Provincial Park is the unofficial observing site for Ottawa Astronomy Friends. Even outside of the Perseid Meteor Shower, it is not uncommon for regional star parties to be regularly held at this airstrip.
It isn’t uncommon for road trippers to camp on this airstrip to watch the Northern Lights with other fellow unofficial campers here. If you’re interested, I actually stumbled upon this great article by We Got Schooled that shares their experience camping in a school bus at this particular airstrip! I really loved reading this article and it makes me want to seriously consider adding this location to a potential Ottawa road trip in the future!

If you’re really looking for somewhere to stargaze casually and you’re absolutely stuck within the Greater Toronto Area, then the Port Union neighbourhood could be your best option.
Port Union offers less light pollution and unobstructed views of the night sky compared to most locations in and around Toronto. However, due to its proximity to city lights, you’ll definitely see less of the night sky than any of the other recommended locations.

Map of places to see the Perseid meteor shower
Here is a map of all the recommended places to watch the Perseid Meteor Shower in Ontario. I’ve split the locations up based on the following categories:
- Blue – Dark Sky Preserve Locations
- Orange – Other Recommended Locations
- Purple – *bonus* I didn’t cover these in detail but this includes other provincial parks that Ontario Parks have hosted stargazing parties at between 2017 – 2019
Tips to find your own location to watch Perseid meteor shower in Ontario
If the suggested places are a bit too far away from where you live, here are some tips on how to find the next best place to watch the meteor shower near you:
Tip 1 – Find a dark, wide, open sky
Okay – this one might seem obvious to everyone, but just because it’s nighttime, it doesn’t mean your night sky is dark! Unless you’re living on a remote island, above the cloud covers on a volcano crater, like Haleakala in Hawaii, chances are artificial light will mask how many stars and meteors you’ll be able to see.
Did you know there’s actually a ranking system to rate night skies that can help you determine just how dark your night sky can be? It’s called the Bortle Scale and it describes 9 classes of the night sky from Class 1: Excellent Dark-Sky Site, all the way to Class 9: Inner-City Sky.
Naturally, to achieve a darker sky, you’d want to avoid as many city lights as possible. So if possible search for publicly accessible large open fields as far away from city lights as possible. Based on the Bortle scale description, your best bet to enjoying the Perseid Meteor Sky is anywhere from Class 1 – Class 4 if possible.
EarthSky.org created a great map that provides a world map of the best places to stargaze. While I have listed the various suggested locations above, there are hundreds of locations around the world for you to explore!
On a side note, I am a bit disappointed that Haleakala didn’t make it to the list when I scrolled over to see Hawaii’s listing. But considering what I saw, I don’t doubt that it will eventually be added to the list!
Tip 2 – Arrive earlier in the evening.
You’ll want to arrive early if you’re heading to a popular dark sky location to watch the meteor showers. Not only will you likely need to reserve your spot in advance, and you’ll also need to give your eyes at least 45 minutes to adjust to the darkness.
Stay longer than you think you should to give yourself the best chance to see the most meteors in the night.
Tip 3 – You don’t need to go during the peak days – especially if the forecast isn’t great.
Before you head out to your meteor-viewing location, make sure to check the sky forecast in the location you want to go. Even if that’s peak meteor activity, it’s not going to do anyone much good if it’s 100% cloud cover at your location.
Remember, the Perseid Meteor Shower runs from July 14 and will continue all the way until August 24th. There are so many dates to choose from that if a certain date doesn’t work for you, you’ll still have ample chances to try again.
The best way to check the cloud cover at night is to visit the Clear Dark Sky before heading out. Yes, the website may look dated, but the data is not! This will likely save you from driving hours on the road only to be disappointed with a cloudy sky! bonus is that you can view a list of all available locations and check out each location’s estimated Bortle Scale darkness level as well.
What to pack when watching a meteor shower
Here are some items that I’ve found particularly useful while star gazing outside in the middle of the night.
- insect repellent
- outdoor blanket
- jacket and pants
- weather-resistant seating – e.g. lawn chair, yoga mat, or a tarp – you’ll definitely want to bring something to keep your butt away from any damp or cold evening ground!
- snacks – if you aren’t used to staying up at night, and you’re anything like me, you may find yourself getting hungry while waiting for the shower – pack a few granola bars or snacks just in case
- hot drink in a thermos
- headlamp (plus extra batteries just in case)
- red cellophane – this is important as you want to reduce as much artificial lighting as possible. However, sometimes that isn’t possible, but red lighting is the best to keep as much of your night vision intact. By bringing red cellophane and putting it over your lights or screens, you’ll be able to adjust back to the night sky in no time
- binoculars (optional)
- camera (optional)
- remote camera trigger (optional)
- tripod (optional)
Camera settings for night sky photographer beginners
I want to start by prefacing that I am *not* a night sky photographer expert. As such the tips I’ve found below are recommendations I’ve found helpful. These tips should be taken as starting grounds for new beginners to the night sky looking to get their first few shots. If you’re looking for more in-depth information, I encourage you to search up more videos and tutorials online 🙂
DSLR or Mirrorless
- Shoot in RAW
- Start with a basic starting exposure and adjust to find the right exposure needed
- Example starting settings for capturing sharp stars and meteors: manual mode, f/2.8, 20 seconds, ISO 4000, white balance 4000 Kelvin (adjusting ISO and shutter speed accordingly)
- Turn off autofocus and focus on a bright star or set the focus to infinity if you’re looking for a clear image of the night sky (note: your foreground, e.g. mountains, trees, etc. will be blurred out when focusing on infinity, so if you are looking for a focused foreground with the night sky, you will need to take two separate shots and stitch them together post-processing)
- Diana Robinson from Nikon’s blog suggests “I usually take a long exposure of about 5 minutes at ISO 2000, f/2.8, 4000°K with long exposure noise reduction turned on so that I can include a nicely exposed foreground blended in with my Milky Way or night sky.”
Camera Phone
I know, I know, taking night photography is best done with a dedicated camera. However, if you just happen to be stopping somewhere on the road, or you’re like me and you only use your phone for everything, it’s still possible to shoot the night sky! Sure, the quality might not be the greatest, but you’ll still be able to come out with some pretty satisfactory results!
Here are some tips to get you started:
- A tripod is a must to keep your camera and image stable
- Avoid using zoom if you can – the low light settings diminishes the quality of the photo on your phone already and added zoom will further diminish it
- Use an app to simulate long shutter speed if it is not built into your camera (examples include: Slow Shutter Cam, Average Camera Pro, Camera FV-5, or Night Camera)
- Make sure flash and HDR are off
- Within the camera app, shift to manual focus
- Set the shutter speed to 8-10 seconds
- Set the ISO levels to 400-800
- Choose a portion of the sky with the moon out of the frame to avoid light leaks when setting up your camera and tripod
- Tap on the area of the frame you want to be accentuated
- Take the photo
