Waubuno Beach is a Blue Flag Beach for the 2020 season*.
Waubuno Beach is located in the town of Parry Sound on the Georgian Bay shoreline. This sandy beach can be accessed from Prospect Street and is commonly referred to as "New Town Beach" by locals. The beach has a buoyed swimming area and has lifeguard supervision (from Canada Day until Labour Day Weekend) so it is a great place for families. There is also a playground, snack bar, washroom and change facilities, and free parking. The beach gets its name from the Algonquin word for "black magician" or "sorcerer".
*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.
