Take the family for beachside fun at Kelso Beach Park in Owen Sound. The 9-hectare oasis is situated at the Pottawatomi River mouth on Georgian Bay. Take to the beach waters for swimming fun, and let the kids take to the splash pad for waterside action from June to September. Once you have worked up an appetite, enjoy something to eat under the picnic shelter or tables.
