A great place to have family and friends to go out with. They got a gazibo and bbq grill through out the park. Even though i don't recommend using the bbq grill az i have noticed it is pretty disgusting as most of the people don't always end up cleaning ot after their use. Other than that it is a pretty Well maintained park by city of Ottawa crew. Play ground for kids with swings. A nice beach ,Baja restuarant(good food but heavy on pricing) fishing spot, canoeing rental, close by ice cream shop and more. I usually go there for a morning walk. After a nice walk on a path you get to view a scenic view of the water at the britania beech. Lots of parking space it has three different parking lots during the summer time it is everyones favourite place so make sure to get there early if you are planning to spend a whole day there as the office rush hour hits the park gets busier. Otherwise bus options are available as well or if you live close by then you can always just walk there. In winter i have seen a lot of people skating on the water or ice fishing snow showeing and lots of stuff on the lake. So enjoy this...

Read moreAs I've said in previous reviews, I'm really not much of a beach person and Ottawa due to constant E coli warnings and my personal dislike for sand but overall Britannia Beach is really enjoyable. There's real, indoor public washrooms, there are outdoor showers, on the concrete so that you can rinse yourself and your children off and stay clean once you're done at the beach. The Baha Burger Shack is absolutely delicious if you're there for a bite to eat. There's a fairly large playground, a large covered gazebo, lots of trees for shade and quite a few outdoor barbecues that people seem to enjoy using. The only thing with this beach is up parking can be quite tricky and there's not really any backup parking because it's tucked in away from any other possible...
