Flowerpot Island

Flowerpot Island is an island in Georgian Bay, and is a part of the Fathom Five National Marine Park of Ontario, Canada. The island spans 2.1 km from east to west, and 1.5 km from north to south, and has a total area of 2 km² (500 acres). It has 6 km of trails on it, and is located 6.5 km north-east of Tobermory. It is accessible by cruises and rigid inflatable boats from Tobermory.

Its name comes from two rock pillars (originally three, one collapsing in 1903) on its eastern shore, which look like flowerpots.
