Sauble Beach was named one of the 'Top 10 Beaches in the World' by the Toronto Star.
Sauble Beach is the second longest freshwater beach in the world! With that much beach, there's lots of room to bring the family and spread out! Swim, surf, kiteboard, SUP, jet ski, build castles, play volleyball or visit the famous Piping Plovers.
When you get hungry, there are many great eating places in walking distance and lots of shops to pop in along the way.
Whatever you do, be sure to finish your day with a calm walk along the beach at dusk with some of the best sunsets you'll see anywhere!
Sauble Beach is a beautiful place to visit, relax and enjoy the sun, sand and surf.
Sauble Beach is also a paid parking area. Paid Parking is in effect from June 1 to Labour Day each year.
When Paid Parking is not in effect, please be sure that you still follow all other parking provisions including: don't park in prohibited areas, watch the clock - 2 hour parking is in effect, only park in accessible spaces if you have a valid accessibility parking permit and only park in motorcycle parking areas if you are driving a motorcycle.
