You can have a beach day and go for a paddle at the same time by visiting this lazy river near Sudbury, Ontario. Boasting a long, winding river and endless sandy beaches, this secret summer destination is worth adding to your warm-weather plans.

The float isn't all you can look forward to. The route is lined with over 12 sandy beaches where you can stop for a swim along the way.

While there are a few deep pockets, the river is mostly shallow, so you can stand up at almost any point during the adventure.

The entire trip takes around two-and-a-half to four hours to complete, and you can even book a cooler tube and bring some snacks for the ride.

Other things you'll want to bring include life jackets, water bottles, sunscreen, a hat, and water shoes.

Reservations are available online and you must bring your own life jacket in order to take part in this lazy river adventure. Prices start at $28 per day per adult.

If you're looking for more places to float this summer, you can take a trip to the Elora Gorge, located just outside of Toronto. This river offers a thrilling tubing experience that takes you through ancient stone walls.

You can also tube through the "Canadian Amazon" at Big Creek this summer.
