Sandbanks Provincial Park

Reviewed By 220Hank

We spent a week with all of our family in Wellington & took them to Sandbanks Provincial Park a number of times as they all loved the wonderful sandy beach & facilities The Grandchildren loved it & had a great time. It is so large & safe for the children as it is shallow for a long ways. Bring chairs & umbrellas & sunscreen.

Point Petre Wildlife Conservation Area

While a simple beach on Lake Ontario, it is right next to CFB Picton Training area where in the 1950's, models of the Avro Arrow were launched to test wing shapes.

We love going to Point Petre, no matter what time of year, it's beautiful. Unfortunately, hunters have been going there and not picking up their shot gun shells. It's sad to see all the garbage all over the beach. My kids decided to reuse the shells to make a beach Christmas tree was the best thing to do...

A nice short ferry ride on a scenic drive from Picton to Kingston. The 12ish car ferry leaves about every 15 minutes. You can walk, bike, or drive across.

My wife and I made the trip out to Parsons, and it was well worth it. The staff took all the necessary COVID precautions, which was nice. We were quickly served our beverages and took a seat on the extensive picnic table set up on the property. I thoroughly enjoyed the Double IPA, as you can see in the picture. My wife (not a beer drinker) really liked her artisanal raspberry & lime soda.
