On the east side of Lake Winnipeg, the spectacular white sands of Patricia and Grand Beaches are considered among the finest beaches in North America.
A peaceful alternative to the Grand Beach bustle, Patricia Beach is a 'low maintenance' Provincial Park offering only some washrooms, picnic tables, fire pits, and drinking water taps.
Almost a quarter mile east of the parking coordinates shown below, at the far end of the main area of beach, step beyond a short pathway to the right through some bushes, you will find yourself in a separate open, sandy area of beach.
The
Lake Winnipeg's Natural Beaches website has information about the beach and the
Manitoba's Naturist Beaches website has more history.
Vehicle Park entry fee is normally required (about $20 for the year for ALL Manitoba Provincial Park) but Park Entry Fees for 2009 & 2010 have been waved.
