What a view of Lake Erie! The water: clear, calm, and vast. Fossil beach is amazing, you can easily locate a fossil on this rocky beach, a great place for children. The lookout is well maintained and has beautiful views. A good place for families to spend a day on the beach which is covered by pebbles, clean and smooth.

Great windy walk on the dog part of the beach and then on the paths. Beautiful views and very clean park. Well worth our 2.5 hour drive for a Saturday afternoon.

I planned on visiting this park to hike and explore. I knew there wasn't much hiking here but the beach is stunning. I brought my bike and was about to ride around the camp ground paths as others were doing so. To bike the entire park too me around half an houe. There are few fossils located on the beach. They are not hard to locate either. Seems like a hot spot for trailers. Dunville is close by if you need amenities and there is a very large ontario parks store within the park.

This place is so serene and quiet, even on busy days. Lots of sun and lots of shade. Photos are just of interesting parts that I saw including the rock formations where you can find fossils. Beach is lovely.

The park was nice. And the beach was breathtaking. The water was not so cold and we could swim. There are 2 parts of the beach the fossil and the swimming. Our camp site was decent size and had some large trees.
