Devonshire Beach, just north of Slave Lake, is absolutely majestic. When we visited, the clouds were rolling in, the waves were gently pushing toward the shore, and it all felt incredibly peaceful — like something out of a painting.
This is a very big lake, and the beach is something else. The sand is ultra fine — worn down over the years until it almost looks like it came straight from a luxury golf course. It’s soft, clean, and stretches on for quite a distance.
The grasses and reeds growing up from the sand give it a bit of a “Hamptons” vibe — but you’re smack in the middle of Alberta. Just gorgeous.
There are multiple beach spots along the road, each with its own character. Honestly, it’s the kind of place that makes you want to stop, breathe it in, and just enjoy the view.
Wonderful,...
Read moreThe place is surrounded by pure nature and is very peaceful, with few crowds, which makes it great for those who enjoy quiet spots. I mainly visited to take some photos – it’s a nice location for that.
There aren’t many facilities around, so it’s a good idea to bring your own food, drinks, and anything else you might need to enjoy the day. Unfortunately, I did notice some people had left garbage behind. It’s important that everyone takes responsibility and carries out what they bring in.
Overall, not a “wow” experience, but still a good spot for a quiet getaway or a photo...
Read moreOne of the cleanest lakes I have been able to visit around Alberta!!
I usually tend to stay clear of all lakes as I come from swimming in the ocean and I find the lakes are very inadequate.
This lovely spot, A lake that not only you still feel clean when you exit, but also clean on the beach!!
The local and travel community there is very nice! Lots of children and family’s! There is also A nice spot that you can get out of the shade!
There is wheelchair access to the beach and to the shaded area and change/bathrooms...
