Water activities and partners
Again this year, the Parc’s partners have enabled users of Jean-Dore Beach to indulge in an array of water-related activities. KSF is offering Stand Up Paddleboard rentals, along with yoga and getting-in-shape classes. Aquazilla is reinstalling its huge inflatable structures comprised of obstacle courses, slides and platforms to amuse kids and adults alike. Écorecreo provides the rental of canoes, kayaks and pedal boats, so you can discover Jean-Dore Beach’s lake and its surroundings.
Open water swimming course
Meanwhile, whether you’re an athlete or a casual swimmer, the Parc has made a 300-meter course available for open water swimming in the lake at Jean-Dore Beach sector. Composed of three delimited corridors, this course is an ideal setup, both for competitive training and an introduction to the sport and allows to enjoy the water to a whole new level.
