Queensland Beach Provincial Park — Attraction in Queensland

Jumped in the ocean for first time in 2 looooong hard years& it was dark out pitch black outside on one evening mid November 2017 N I still feel great! Never knew till now tho the beauty of my surroundings when I ran down some stairs through the sand and dov head first into the cold black Ocean I'd missed so greatly.!! So i must say Thank you to a new friend Matt Slaney who made my wish come true for me to jump in the ocean for the first time in far to many years at this beautiful location &it was a perfect first impression forsure & a spontaneous thrilling adventure one could never forget!! I'll definitely be here...

If you love to swim in the ocean without absolutely freezing, Any of the beaches in St. Margaret's Bay are about as good as you can find outside of the Northumberland Strait. Queensland is my personal favorite, and now that the highway is twinned to Boutilier's Point, it is quick to get to from Halifax. The beach is pretty narrow at high tide, so it is worth checking a tide chart to see when to go. The parking is sometimes a bit of a snarl, but there is a paid option across the road. Also across the road is a snack bar. The beach itself has change rooms and some pretty sketchy...

Go to Crystal Crescent instead! This beach is pretty, but I just want to point out for those that are not local, that this beach is directly off the road. It's kind of like swimming right next to a busy road. There isn't a "park" at all. The beach is very narrow and it's quite rocky. Sand is fine and nice, no shells, lots of bugs though. The water is no warmer than any other beach here, so that is misleading. The sun is very intense because of the lake right behind causes a dual reflection effect. It is well-maintained and clean. Camping style restrooms & changing rooms...
