If you have a chance to visit Barrie in Ontario, Centennial Beach would be a must-see place. It’s located on Kempenfelt Bay, which is part of Lake Simcoe. The beach has soft sand and calm water, making it a great place to relax, swim, or just enjoy the view. In the summer, there are lifeguards on duty, so it's safe for everyone, including kids.
Around the beach, there are many things to do. You can play volleyball, basketball, or use the playground. There are also walking trails along the water, picnic tables, and barbecue areas. It’s a good place to spend the whole day with friends or family. The beach is clean and well-maintained, and there are public washrooms nearby, which is very helpful.
It's easy to get there. You can drive there and park nearby, or take a walk or ride your bike. In the summer, you can also rent E-bikes to explore the area. The beach is right near downtown Barrie, so there are shops and restaurants close by too.
One special season to visit is in August, during a big event called Kempenfest. It’s a popular arts and music festival with food, crafts, and live shows. Part of the event also includes a swim across the bay that starts at the beach. It’s a fun and exciting time, and the area is full of energy and people enjoying themselves.
What I like most about Centennial Beach is that it has a mix of fun and peace. You can play and be active, but also sit quietly and watch the water or the sunset. It’s a beautiful place that brings people together and shows the best of summer in Ontario. If you haven’t been there yet, I highly recommend visiting. It’s a simple but special place to enjoy nature and relax.
