North Beach Provincial Park is a beautiful day-use-on park offering long sandy beaches along Lake Ontario and North Bay — 2,000 m of sand beach to be specific! Located in Prince Edward County, a short drive from its more famous neighbour, Sandbanks, it’s a popular spot for beach-goers and often hits capacity throughout the summer. Due to its popularity, it is highly recommended to book your day use permit in advance to guarantee entry. On busy days, weekends, and when Online Daily Vehicle Permits are fully reserved, park staff will provide capacity updates on Twitter. North Beach is only open for the summer season (mid-June – early October).
