Spot Details
Windiest in Spring and Fall, like the rest of Ontario
The beach is narrow, making this an intermediate to advanced spot (can stay upwind and self rescue without touching bottom)
Too busy with beach goers on many summer days.
Beware of water quality here, especially after heavy rains, there have been reports of riders getting sick after riding at this spot.
Check water quality reports from the "[url=http://www.hamilton.ca/HealthandSocialServices/PublicHealth/SafeWater/Beaches.htm?WT.mc_ class]City of Hamilton[/url]" website
