"Still Canada's Prettiest Town!"

On Sunday afternoon, August 21, 2011 a destructive tornado ripped through 'Canada's Prettiest Town.' Major damage was done to the Sifto Salt Mine, our historic Courthouse Square and Park, much of our parkland and many residences, some of which have major historic value.

We are rebuilding and already have an excellent reforestation plan in progress.

We still want the opportunity to welcome you as a guest and visitor. Our waterfront, with three great beaches is still intact, many restaurants and accommodations are up and running, the Huron County Museum is open and we are still excited about making plans for events this fall, Christmas and winter. Please feel free to call ahead or email us to ensure that you have the best experience possible. The phone numbers for Tourism Goderich are 519-524-6600 or Toll Free at 1-800-280-7637. Our email address is tourism@goderich.ca.

Every day we move closer to once again being what we are so proud to be.

If you are visiting Goderich in the near future, please note that all streets including Courthouse Square are now open to vehicles and pedestrians. All we ask is that you to please respect the efforts being made at recovery and rebuilding.

Thank you all for your understanding, your patience and your concern. Together we stand strong and with your help we will once again be 'Canada's Prettiest and Strongest Town.'
