One of our personal favourites; this is a nice little park with a small beach and a great view of downtown Barrie across the bay. A favourite with sailboarders and windsurfers.
A great place to take a picnic lunch and sit in the shade of a tree. Don't miss the awesome ice cream from Joye's ice cream parlour, just outside the entrance :)
