A well-known budget intercity bus service is adding new beach town stops along its Toronto to Owen Sound route starting this week.
Beginning Thursday, Flix Bus will include Sauble Beach, Southampton, and Port Elgin as stops. This is a seasonal extension of the current route.
“With summer travel season just around the corner, we’re thrilled to offer Ontarians and visitors a convenient, sustainable way to reach some of the province’s best-loved beach towns,” Karina Frayter, the bus company’s North American head of communications, said in a statement on Monday. “This route extension reflects our commitment to connecting more communities across Canada and giving travelers easy, budget-friendly access to top seasonal destinations.”
The extended route will operate daily throughout the week. It will connect passengers to major hubs like Toronto Union Station Bus Terminal, Pearson International Airport, Barrie, Wasaga Beach, Collingwood, Blue Mountain Village, Thornbury, Meaford, Owen Sound, South Bruce Peninsula Visitor Center, Sauble Beach, Southampton, and Port Elgin.
For the towns added to this route, there’s hope that it will attract more visitors to the area.
“This expanded route offers a safe and affordable travel option that opens our region to more visitors and new opportunities. It’s a win for local businesses, residents, and tourists alike,” said South Bruce Peninsula Mayor Jay Kirkland.
Flix Bus started in Europe back in 2013 and has been operating in Ontario since April 2022 with routes from Toronto to Ottawa and Waterloo to Toronto among others. Since then it has also expanded its service into London, Hamilton, and Sarnia.
