The Beachway

Burlington waterfront beach, trail, and dune strip on Lake Ontario

The Beachway is Burlington's long Lake Ontario shoreline, a mix of sand, dunes, lake views, and waterfront trail between the city and the Burlington Canal. It gives the city a real beach walk rather than just a paved promenade.

Use it for an easy cycle, a swim on calm summer days, or a sunset walk with views toward the Skyway. The area is open and exposed, so wind can change the feel quickly; bring layers outside midsummer.
