Lake Winnipeg's Paradise Beaches tells the history of the charming cottage communities where Manitobans have flocked for more than a century of enchanted summer months.
It's another beautiful summer's day. A perfect day to head for the beach. Since the turn of the century, when Manitobans first discovered its beauty, they've been flocking to Lake Winnipeg and while some are content to be day-trippers, many built a cottage, their own place at the lake.
Manitobans own more than 12,000 cottages the highest rate in the country. It's were they learned to swim, met new friends, perhaps, where they fell in love. Where they passed two enchanted summer months.
The beach offers delights for every age. Sand castles, the splash of the surf, the ever-changing water. Magnificent sunsets. Walks in the great outdoors. Winnipeg Beach, Gimli, Grand Beach, Victoria Beach. and a dozen more locations scattered on its sandy shore -- for many these are the fondest memories of childhood. Safe delightful summers spent at Manitoba's summer playground. Join us on the south shores of Lake Winnipeg's for a tour of Lake Winnipeg's paradise beaches.
