(La version française suivra) Hou Hou! Have you heard of Owl Rafting? This beautiful location is on the Ottawa River, in Foresters Falls. The sandy beach is groomed and maintained for their customers. The beach is owned by OWL rafting but feel free to call up (1-800-461-7238) if you have any questions. This is also a campground (cabins)! but you must be using the river if you want to camp at this location. There are grassy areas for picnics and kids running around. There are TONS of activities here: floating dock, disk golf, playground, dinner cruises on the pontoons, stand-up paddling (SUP), Yoga on SUP, kayaking, canoeing, and most importantly.. RAFTING on Rocher Fendu rapids! A delicious café is available for the customers. Dogs are not allowed on the beach and there is a public boat launch near by on Acres Rd. There are no lifeguards on the premisses. We are currently in the process of figuring out a water quality testing program at this beach (contact OWL rafting for more information).

Hou Hou! Avez-vous entendu de OWL rafting? Cet endroit est situé sur la rivière des Outaouais, à Foresters Falls. La plage de sable est entretenue belle par l'équipe de OWL rafting. Elle appartient à l'organization mais n'hésitez surtout pas d'appeller (1-800-461-7238) si vous avez des questions. C'est aussi un terrain de campement (avec cabanes) mais vous devez participez aux activités sur l'eau offertes par OWL rafting pour utiliser ces cabanes. Entourant la plage, une pelouse bien entretenue et des tables à pic-niques sont disponibles. Il y a BEAUCOUP d'activités ici: Le disc golfe, le canot/kayak, des soupers sur les bateaux-mouches, des planches surf 'Stand-Up' (SUP), kayaks/canots, et surtout.. le RAFTING sur les rapides Rocher Fendu. Un petit café est sur le site pour les clients. Il n'y a pas de supervision par des sauveteurs et les chiens ne sont pas permis sur la plage. Nous sommes dans le processus de permettre l'échantillonage pour mesurer la qualité d'eau à cette plage, veuillez communiquer avec eux.

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.
For more information, please visit the World Health Organization public resource on COVID-19.
