Britannia Beach

Britannia Beach is conveniently located within the city itself. Found on Ottawa’s west side, it’s a long sandy strip featuring barbecue pits, picnic tables, public washrooms and free water fountains, perfect for a day at the riverside. Hire a volleyball net for a game before stopping by the Beachconers – a hidden ice-cream shop serving up cones and ice cream sandwiches in a range of innovative flavors. Britannia Beach is open all year between 10am and 5pm.
