This beach is found next to the Porters Lake provincial park, where there is camping, washrooms, showers, picnic tables and a boat launch. The small sandy swimming area is supervised by lifeguards on weekdays only. The lake is known for boating and fishing. It is 19 km long but never more than 1 km wide.
This is an estuarine beach and is tested for Fecal Enterococci.
This beach is in a shallow cove with little drainage.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is still essential. Only go to the beach if you are able to keep 6 feet or 2 meters away from others. Follow the instructions provided by your local health authorities. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter our efforts to curb the virus’s spread.
