BEACH INFO:
With 350 metres of sandy beach and parking for over 200 vehicles, this park is great for the whole family. The lake has a reputation as the warmest in all of Canada. Plenty of shade trees and picnic tables near the beach, combined with a warm shallow swimming area make this a super beach for the kids. Popular activities on this beach include swimming, fishing, canoeing, cycling and waterskiing. The park has three cold water taps, picnic areas, flush (and pit) toilets and wheelchair access. Wood ticks are prevalent at this park during March ~ June, so always exercise caution.
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.
