When the sand is visible it's gorgeous. Visit every year. Very close to amenities. The bonus is nearby Warren Lake.

I rugged and beautiful natural beach. But beware, the undertows are nothing to joke about! Had a lovely stroll on the sandy part and dipped our feet in the ocean, a quick yet stunning stop.

This beach has waves on the ocean side and warmth on the freshwater side. The view was amazing,the water clear and the sand was perfect for castle building.

FYI: Put the other Ingonish Beach as your destination in google maps. This one down Beach Crossing Road will lead you to some residential areas and only a roadside area to park your cars. Although a beautiful and tranquil location, I don’t think that the private homeowners in the area would want tourists to park right outside of their homes when there is a proper parking area at the Ingonish Beach just a few km away.
