St. Ambroise Beach Provincial Park, Provincial park at Lake Manitoba, Canada
St. Ambroise Beach Provincial Park occupies 46 hectares along Lake Manitoba and includes sandy beaches, marshlands, and a network of hiking paths throughout the grounds. The park provides a boat launch, wheelchair-accessible facilities, camping areas, and a seasonal restaurant operating during warmer months.
Manitoba's government established this protected area in 1961 to preserve natural spaces along the southern shore of Lake Manitoba. The creation reflected a broader effort to protect wetlands that provide essential habitat for migratory birds.
The beach sits along the Pine to Prairie International Birding Trail, linking natural habitats that span across two countries and serve migrating birds throughout seasons.
The park is easy to navigate and offers accessible areas throughout. Boating and hiking work best during warmer months when the facilities operate fully, though the park becomes busier during peak season.
The wetland shelters nesting grounds for piping plovers and provides seasonal rest areas for warblers, geese, and white pelicans during their migration. This concentration of birds makes it a notable destination for those interested in watching wildlife.
