Go jump in a lake (or an ocean … because we’ve got plenty of both)! One of the perks of living in HRM is that no matter where you are, you’re not far from a beach. We’ve put together a list of popular supervised Halifax beaches for you to explore this summer.<\/p>\n

1. Clam Harbour Beach Provincial Park <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Home to the annual Clam Harbour Beach Sandcastle Competition, this long, wide sandy beach is about an hour’s drive from Downtown Halifax. Visitors can enjoy a picnic in a field on top of a bluff, or take a dip in the water while the beach is supervised on weekends during the summer.<\/p>\n

2. Crystal Crescent Beach Provincial Park<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Crystal Crescent has crystal clear water and beautiful white sandy beaches (three, to be exact). It also features long boardwalks and a great hiking trail.<\/p>\n

3. Rainbow Haven Beach Provincial Park<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

This may be the most popular Halifax beach since it is tucked away in a cove and experiences less wind, as a result. On a hot summer weekend, make sure to get there early!<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0Chocolate Lake Beach<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

About 5 minutes from Downtown Halifax, Chocolate Lake is a great spot for families who want a quick summer day getaway. Lifeguards are on duty during the summer months from 11 am – 5 pm.<\/p>\n

5. Martinique Beach Provincial Park<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

With a protected wildlife refuge and wooded picnic areas behind the dunes, this white-sandy beach has so much to offer explorers, beachcombers, and swimmers alike.<\/p>\n

Remember to be safe out there! Wear your sunscreen, your floppy hats and flotation devices, and most importantly always check to see when beaches will be supervised! Happy swimming!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
