Bell Park Main Beach is a Blue Flag Beach for the 2020 season*.
Located South of Sudbury’s downtown area, this sandy beach is a popular recreational spot complete with snack bars and functional restrooms. This beach is known for hosting various seasonal events such as the Northern Lights Festival Boreal, Summerfest, and the Sudbury Dragon Boat Races. There is a boardwalk leading along the edge of the waterfront popular for jogging/biking as opposed to swimming and boating in the waters of Ramsey Lake. The site also holds an amphitheatre, two gazebos and a children’s play area, with free parking available at the Sudbury Canoe Club. Lifeguards are on duty from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. between June 27th to August 19th.
*A Blue Flag beach is one that meets strict water quality and safety criteria. These beaches are certified annually as being clean, accessible, eco-friendly, and having great water quality! Swim Drink Fish is the National Operator for Blue Flag in Canada.

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.
