Rodney, Port Glasgow, West Lorne & Eagle

It’s time to set the record straight. Rodney is in-fact home to the smallest jail in North America, measuring in at 4.5m by 5.4m. Record your visit to the Ye Olde Jail and share your photo with us by ‘gramming’ #ElginCounty!

Head south to Port Glasgow to relax on its Blue Flag Beach, which is 1 of only 27 in Canada. Beaches are designated Blue Flag for having high environmental and quality standards. So dust off your giant flamingo floatie and flock to Port Glasgow to see what the hype is about!

Travel due east down Talbot Line, or Talbot as locals call it, but don’t blink or you might miss the hamlet of Eagle. Don’t be fooled by its size, nestled here is Elgin’s first brewery, Natterjack Brewering Company Ltd., that is known for its bald, oops, we mean bold flavours! (See what we did there?)
