Fifty Point is 26 miles southwest of Toronto and 24 miles west of Youngstown and Niagara on the Lake Approaching Fifty Point watch carefully for 8 tall red communications towers (lit by red aircraft obstruction lights at night) about 1 mile east. In Daylight they tend to blend in with the escarpment backdrop. More readily visible from offshore during the day is a single tall communications tower to the west of Fifty Point. There is a large spit of land 700 feet long and 40 feet high, about 200 feet to the east of the Harbour entrance. The harbour is entered between 2 rock breakwaters that form a narrow channel.
