Swimming & Beach.
Station Beach is the main downtown sand beach — sand dunes, beach volleyball courts, washrooms and heated showers, and a change house in walking distance of Main Street. Boiler Beach runs the cottage-country shoreline south of downtown, Tiny Tots Beach sits in the harbour area, and Inverhuron Provincial Park's beach adds a Lake Huron sand stretch inside the provincial park boundary twenty minutes north.
The brief.
Lake Huron's western exposure brings the long sunset evenings the coast is known for and the open-fetch swell that drives Station Beach surfing. Late June through early September is the comfortable swimming window; May and October work for beach use without the swim.
Station Beach has the most amenities (washrooms, heated showers, change house, beach volleyball, free parking, downtown adjacent); Boiler Beach is residential cottage shoreline with limited public infrastructure; Tiny Tots Beach is small and family-protected by the harbour. Inverhuron's beach is inside the Ontario Parks day-use permit system.
