Pancake Bay is a sheltered, south-facing bay on the eastern shore of Lake Superior, north of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. A beautiful sand beach lines the bay, and ancient beach ridges are visible more inland. The ecology of the region is characteristic of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence transition forest , but is a northern shelter for more southerly flora and fauna.

Ontario Parks has established a recreational-class Provincial Park here to help preserve the fragile beach dune ecology. Pancake Bay Provincial Park has one of the highest visitor rates of all the Provincial Parks in the north-east region, and the highest number of campsites.

This region is home to a number of regionally rare and vulnerable species, including Braun's holly fern , maidenhair spleenwort, sand reed and the majestic peregrine falcon.

While at this park, you can see plenty of moose, black bears and other wildlife.
