Overview

Patricia Beach is a provincial park on the east shore of Lake Winnipeg, south of Grand Beach. Its long sand beaches offer excellent lake access for kitesurfing.

Less known than Grand Beach, Patricia Beach offers the same wind conditions with fewer people. The west fetch (60+ km) generates formed chop in sustained winds. Wide beach ideal for launching. Season from June to October.
