The public beach in Ompah is located on Palmerston Lake. Ompah is considered to be in prime cottage country, and there are many lakes nearby, including Palmerston Lake, Sunday Lake and Mosque Lake. Ompah is a First Nations word meaning "long step" or "long portage", which is fitting as Ompah is located along a traditional portage between Palmerston Lake and the Mississippi River.
