This gorgeous Quebec beach makes you feel like you're in the Carribean

In honour of the beach’s 35th anniversary, Plage Saint-Zotique got a major upgrade this summer.

This stunning beach set on the shores of the Saint Lawrence River in the township of Saint-Zotique (which is roughly 1 hour west of Montreal), is officially open for the season!

Plage Saint-Zotique is the perfect spot for a beach getaway without breaking the bank! It’s got warm sand, tiki-inspired beach umbrellas, paddleboats, a playground, and more.

There are also several special events happening this year in celebration of the beach’s 35th anniversary, as well as the township’s 50th anniversary!

Further, not only is it certified “A” by the Ministry of Sustainable Development, Environment, and Parks, but it’s eco-responsible and offers a hyppocamp beach wheelchair so disabled people can also enjoy floating on the water.
