Brighton is one of the fastest growing towns in Ontario, with attractive housing developments both on and near the water. With its charming 19th century architecture, the town retains the spirit of the early founders who established some of the finest apple orchards in Canada. In summer, the town is at its busiest with tourists, campers and cottagers.

​

People visit the area to fish Presqu'ile Bay for trophy Walleye and Pike or alternatively, head out into Lake Ontario for championship Salmon and Trout fishing. Boaters can also enjoy shallow and deep water boating.
