Celebrate and visit our 2022 Blue Flag Beach!

The Municipality of Bayham Port Burwell East Beach is flying the 2022 Blue Flag Beach flag this summer as we have been approved again joining the ranks of the most pristine beaches in Ontario’s south west.

The Blue Flag season generally runs from the Victoria Day Long Weekend untuil the Labour Day Long Weekend.

Port Burwell East Beach can boast not only pristine swimming waters and excellent facilities, but also sustainable management practices with responsible stewardship of local ecosystems.

The beautiful sandy beach may be the focus of your excursion to Port Burwell. The shallow waters of Lake Erie create ideal swimming opportunities. Enjoy the ample space to catch some rays while physical distancing to ensure everyone's safety!  Free parking. Public permanent beach washrooms are available 8:00 am - 9:00 pm, portable washrooms are available at the beach, Marine Museum parking lot and at Memorial Park.

By-Law No. 2015-113 s. 2.7 prohibits dogs on the Municipal East Beach between the hours of 8:00 am – 8:00 pm during June - October.

Seasonal water testing occurs from June to August through the Southwestern Public Health.  For more information on Beach Water Testing, click the link below to visit their website:
