Located on the shores of Georgian Bay at the mouth of
the Pottawatami River, you can access the park by car via the Eddie
Sergeant Parkway or by foot or bicycle following the city's harbour
front walkway. The park offers views of the eastern shore of the
harbour, interspersed with tall willow trees and boats in the distance.
It's adjacent to the Georgian Shores Marina.
At Kelso Beach Park, you'll find a sandy playground, beach, picnic
shelters, soccer fields and baseball diamonds, plus a children's splash
pad, built by the Scenic City Order of Good Cheer. The splash pad is
open daily from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., from Victoria Day weekend until
Thanksgiving Monday. The beach and splash pad are both unsupervised. A
water advisory will be posted at the beach by the local health unit if
it's unsafe for swimming. |
