Goulais Bay is a beautiful bay located in Ontario, Canada. It is part of a larger body of water called Whitefish Bay. Whitefish Bay itself is a big bay within the famous Lake Superior. Think of Goulais Bay as a smaller section of a much larger lake system.

This point is on the southern tip of a piece of land. This land separates Goulais Bay from Batchawana Bay to the north. It also separates it from Whitefish Bay to the west. To the south, a rocky area known as North Gros Cap marks the bay's southern edge.
