Batchawana Bay Provincial Park, Provincial park with sandy beach on Lake Superior in Algoma District, Canada.
The park extends over 169 hectares along Lake Superior, featuring a natural sandy beach with shallow waters suitable for swimming and recreation.
The Ontario government established Batchawana Bay Provincial Park in 1973 as a dedicated day-use recreational area for visitors to Lake Superior.
The park stands near Chippewa Falls, where a plaque marks the midpoint of the Trans-Canada Highway, connecting the nation from coast to coast.
Visitors can access the park from May to October through Highway 17, located 40 kilometers north of Sault Ste. Marie with parking and picnic facilities.
The waters of Batchawana Bay maintain higher temperatures than other Lake Superior locations, making swimming more comfortable during summer months.
