St. Ambroise Beach Provincial Park

Manitoba Parks Reservations Service

Birdwatchers start heading to this park, on the southern shores of Lake Manitoba, in late April. For it's in spring that a wide variety of birds including warblers, geese, and pelicans flock to St. Ambroise as a stopover in their travels. In summer, this park is especially popular with families, as the shallow waters and sandbars serve as a natural playground. Comb the shores and listen to the songs of the summer residents such as catbirds, american goldfinches, and yellow-headed blackbirds. Take care not to disturb the nest of the endangered piping plover. Paddle out to the smooth sand inlets scattered just off-shore. On the other side of this sand barrier park you'll find Sioux Pass Marsh featuring a boardwalk trail that will give you a glimpse of life in this wetland. Explore St. Ambroise just for a day, or set-up camp close to the water and let the waves lull you to sleep at night.
