  • I have a mixed response towards, ahem, *The Beaches' Ashbridges Bay Park .* You see, too me, a beach is a place that is generally sandy, looks like a beach, smells like a beach and that you can swim in it. The beaches do not smell like a beach, specially on warm days when the filtration plants or the algae work overtime and thanks to Lake Ontario's water quality, most people hesitate to do any actual swimming. EVER. So two out of four does not make a real beach to me. More like a large patch of sand. For you see, I was raised near the ocean --and if you have been too, then you will agree that like the man with one eye in the land of the blind, I see "The Beaches" as escapist, anticlimactic false advertising. With an overpriced real state market, specifically the cookie-cutter houses on Woodbine which in my humble opinion, with their Bahamas styled painting scheme actually take away from the area of the park. Having said that the board-walk is very nice, good to do some people watching and just to stroll, catch some fitness here and there. But that is the board-walk, not the beach. I do like the trail that goes along the lake but the is the Goodman trail, not the beach. See what I did there? All in all, the park part is not bad just avoid the beaches' pub as their prices are, as expected, set to stunt... and highway robbery. Great to see large groups of people playing 'sand volleyball' and many a time you can catch some good photography and it is interesting to read about the history of the area\park. It is fascinating! But if you really want a beach, you might be better served driving up north to a healthier lake and actually catch some sun and then take a refreshing dip or even better yet a fun swim. Like all people do in real beaches all around the world.
