Beach Status Update
Following damage caused by the March 29/30 ice storm, all Township parks and trails are open to the public as of April 25, 2025, with the exception of Val Harbour Park, located at 3758 Harry's Lane. Greenspaces may still be affected. We thank all residents for their patience and understanding as we work to reopen public spaces safely. Please stay clear of closed areas, and report safety hazards or damage via ramara.ca/ReportIt.
There are many places to swim in Ramara, but we have five locations that are designated public beach locations. Throughout the summer between June and September (Labour Day weekend) water samples are collected from these designated public beaches by the Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit. In Ontario, water samples are tested for E. coli bacteria and the beach may be posted when bacteria levels exceed the recreational water quality guideline of 200 E. coli per 100 mL of water.
Beaches are unsupervised, so please play responsibly when around the water.
