The West Beach at Marie Curtis Park is not monitored. This long stretch of beach west of the Etobicoke Creek may look inviting, but the area has a history of water quality problems and swimming is not advised. You can relax on the sand or enjoy the park and its trails, but please use the east beach if you want to jump in Lake Ontario. There is a pedestrian bridge that will get you there easily.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is essential right now. Follow the advice of the health experts. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Heading to the beach should only be considered an option if social distancing practices can be followed. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter the efforts to curb the virus’ spread.
