Jones Beach | Great Lakes Guide

Jones Beach suffers from more water quality problems than other beaches in the area. It may not be your best bet for a summer's swim, but it is still a peaceful place to go for a paddle, or hangout on the shoreline of Lake Ontario.

Niagara Coastal started monitoring Jones Beach in 2022 to assess the current bacterial contamination level as it had not been monitored by the region since 2017.
