Grand Marais is a small resort community on magnificent Lake Winnipeg in the province of Manitoba. The area is home to about 350 permanent residents. This population increases dramatically in summer when seasonal cottages fill with vacationers.

Grand Marais is immediately adjacent to Grand Beach Provincial Park, a 3 km beach composed of the finest sand imaginable. Crowds of thirty thousand (and often more) regularly enjoy the sand, sun and fresh water on summer weekends.

Grand Marais is a bird watchers paradise; the area is home to the rare Pileated Woodpecker and, in summer, to the even more rare Piping Plover. Many other birds pass through the area on their biannual migration. The northern terminus of the Ruby-throated Hummingbird's migration is found here too.
