Huron Shores is a municipality in the Canadian province of Ontario, located along the North Channel of Lake Huron in the Algoma District.
The municipality was created in 1999 through the amalgamation of the former Township of Thessalon, Township of Thompson, Townships of Day and Bright Additional, and the former village of Iron Bridge. Huron Shores also surrounds the town of Thessalon and the Thessalon First Nation, but neither are part of the municipality.
