Penetanguishene Naval Yard was a Royal Navy yard from 1834 to 1856 in Ontario. The yard was originally located at the Wasaga Blockhouse in Drummond Island after the abandonment of Amherstburg Royal Naval Dockyard. Land was acquired in 1798 and a base finally built in 1813, but it was abandoned in 1815. It was reinstated in 1816 and remained on the island until 1834. The base was later relocated near the Nottawasaga River at Discovery Bay in 1816 and served as the Lake Huron fleet of the Provincial Marine until 1834. The navy transferred the base to the army and served until 1856.
