Beautiful sunsets, busy on weekends, no tents, upright umbrellas only
Grand Bend Beach的点评
点评:We arrived during a weekend morning and it was a quiet place. As the morning turned to noon, more and more people set up camp. Everyone seemed to be enjoying the waters. The lifeguards were busy waving their flags and occasionally enforce beach rules.
The rules said no sports, but we saw people doing frisbees on the water and football on the beach, so the rules are not strictly enforced. Almost everyone that had an umbrella followed the upright-only rule (i.e. no umbrellas resting on the ground).
No tents were also allowed due to anecdotes of defecating under the tents in recent years. As we had a nearby cottage, we didn't need to use the washroom, so I did not check if there were washroom facilities along the beach. Also, we stayed at the more secluded part of the beach, so there were no shower or changing facilities, but as I walked to the busier part, there were such facilities present.
Almost all were swimming or floating, and a few brought their inflatable kayaks and paddleboards too.
翻译:我们是在周末的早上到达的,这里很安静。从早上到中午,越来越多的人开始扎营。每个人似乎都在享受水的乐趣。救生员忙着挥舞旗帜,偶尔执行海滩规则。
规则规定禁止运动,但我们看到有人在水上玩飞盘,在沙滩上踢足球,所以规则并没有严格执行。几乎所有带伞的人都遵守了只能直立的规则(即不能把伞放在地上)。
由于近年来有在帐篷下排便的传闻,因此也不允许搭帐篷。因为我们住在附近的小屋,所以不需要使用洗手间,所以我没有检查海滩上是否有洗手间设施。此外,我们住在海滩比较僻静的地方,所以没有淋浴或更衣设施,但当我走到比较繁忙的地方时,发现有这样的设施。
几乎所有人都在游泳或漂浮,有几个人还带着充气皮划艇和桨板。
