Grand Bend
Edit SpotAbout
Its really just for Fun. With the lake being frozen till mid april, you're just glad to be out there.
Atmosphere:
Its a great time. Everyone is just so stoked to be out there catching a few so the atmosphere is great. Everyone is very friendly. The beaches get packed in the summer but few people surf. So fighting for waves is non-existent.
Additional Info:
Doesnt break too often..but its "fun" when it does. There is parking all over the place. Better for longboards. Anything from 7feet and up is best.
