Beach Ten in Presque Isle State Park is probably the best of all the beaches they have to offer…read more It does take a little longer to get to once you enter the park, but it is worth the wait, and travel. The view is spectacular, even on an overcast day. It is relaxing to sit in the sand and just soak up the sun. With Beach Ten being probably the nicest beach, it does get a lot of use out of it as well. There is enough space to stretch out, but do be mindful of the other people that may be there. Pros: Ample parking Picnic tables for use Lifeguard on duty most times Shower/changing amenities Cons: None There is a concession stand area if you find you want a snack while you are here. But you have to be mindful. The concession stand is not always open. There are eleven beaches I believe and each beach has this area available. They do kind of a rolling rotation of which stand(s) are open on what day. If the concession stand is not open a note will be posted to inform you what stand is open if you feel the need to get a snack. This area also offers vending options as well as a telephone to call for emergencies. A place to rinse off your feet after being in the sand. The restrooms are located here as well.

They sell firewood but it's slightly cheaper to grab it in-town. We heard coyotes howling in the night... cool and scary! Bring earplugs! There's a cute ice cream spot not far from here, would recommend checking it out. The nearby beach is lovely. There are parts which are a bit rough on the feet but most of the beach is very soft sand. Bring insect repellant though! The black flies on the beach can get a bit nasty. Lovely water for swimming, cold and refreshing.

Up till this experience, campgrounds have always found an overflow primitive spot to accommodate us. We only needed 2@ 3'X7' spots in the grass and we are out early the next morning. The Park Ranger was adamant that she was not allowed to let us stay, even though we had cycled 70+ miles. We explained that in the US we had always found campgrounds would accommodate hiker bikers who arrive on their own power. Obviously Ontario Province does not value camping cyclist.

So on my travels I randomly stumbled upon this incredible beach as I was in desperate need of some mellow time and that's exactly what I found here as it has a interesting little path with a steep incline to get down to where the beach it self was so if you have trouble with stairs then this might not be the spot for you! The beach has some parking spots at the end but not a lot so I dunno if it gets busy here but plan accordingly. Also please keep the beach beautiful and pack out your trash just like the sign asks for! This was a beautiful beach and if I lived in the area this would be my go to spot as it's nice and shady and just breathtaking beautiful it's for this and all of the other reasons that I hope to make it here again someday!

It gets extremely crowded, especially on weekends - so make a reservation well in advance. It can get loud at times, but the OPP always keep things safe and quiet at night. They have hydro sites and rustic camp sites. You can rent canoes, get an ice cream at their store, do a ranger program, go on a hike or just relax at the beach. Spectacular views everywhere. The Pinery is a great Provincial Park and we are very lucky to have it so close to the Windsor / Sarnia area.

It cost 21$ per car to enter the area and there were plenty of beaches, walking trails and camp site you can book.

Most new parks I'm introduced to by my dad who walks anywhere and everywhere with our dog, Cooper. We were both feeling like an evening stroll and an ice cream and he suggested going down to Bronte - an area that is really nice, but not one I often go to! We parked at a waterfront park which seemed like the trail was very elevated but as we walked down I noticed a sign that said this spot was okay for swimming. I was a bit hesitant to believe that because...you know..lake Ontario? Swimming? Boy was I pleasantly surprised! This beach is adorable, well maintained, the perfect spot for an evening picnic. The shoreline was sandy and not full of rocks like many other beaches in this area. There is an area on the opposite side of the pier that is more rocky, but you could still sit on larger rocks or bring a chair on that side as well. The trail itself isn't too long, so if you're looking for more of a hike this probably isn't your jam.

If you are looking for a place to have a family outdoor gathering with plenty of space for the kids to play, this is the place. The best part is the view of the lake is spectacular. It was so quaint and peaceful! We strolled along the lake and then just relaxed in the Marina picnic area for lunch. Considering it was a Thanksgiving long weekend, this place was relatively quiet. It's definitely a hidden gem.

It's an enormous park which has plenty of trails, picnic benches, and activities to do such as a small beach, kayaking or swimming in the lake, or playing sports or games with friends and family in the parks. There is even a horse trail! Pet friendly and even when the park is full, it does not feel congested. Parking is $15 for vehicle and driver plus $5 per passenger. I found this to be a bit expensive.
