Haldimand Beach
Plage Haldimand
A long sandy beach on the south shore of Gaspé Bay, about a 10-minute drive from town, and the local favourite for summer.
Haldimand Beach lies on the south shore of Gaspé Bay, with about 2 km of fine sand. Waves in the bay are gentle, and lifeguards are on duty in summer. Entry is free. From the beach you can look across the bay to the Forillon Peninsula and the Penouille spit, and the sunsets here are lovely. There is a car park and simple eateries nearby, making it a good place to relax after a day in the park.
