Sandbanks Provincial Park - West Lake Beach / Dunes Beach | Great Lakes Guide

Welcome to two of the largest freshwater baymouth sandbars in the world. The Park offers overnight camping, as well as long stretches of sandy beaches. This sensitive dune ecosystem is very rare and truly spectacular. In the middle of summer, the campground and the beach are nearly always packed with people so be sure to book your sites early. Found close to the Woodland camping ground and Maple Rest Heritage House, West Lake Beach is one of the most sheltered in the park.

No lifeguards, water safety is your responsibility. Life Jacket Lending Program available.
