Lakeview Park Beach

Lakeview Park Beach is a premier waterfront destination in Oshawa, offering a scenic stretch of sandy shoreline along the banks of Lake Ontario. As the centerpiece of the larger 44-acre Lakeview Park—originally donated to the city by the McLaughlin family in 1920—the beach is renowned for its well-maintained picnic areas, vibrant playgrounds, and a popular 280-square-meter splash pad. Visitors can explore the historic Oshawa Museum located right on the grounds, walk or cycle along the extensive Waterfront Trail, or enjoy community events at the iconic Jubilee Pavilion. With its picturesque pier, supervised swimming areas (at Lakeview Park East), and proximity to the Second Marsh coastal wetland, the beach serves as a vital recreational and historical hub for residents across the Durham Region.
