The warm weather is right around the corner, and if you're already planning some summer experiences, this beach in Canada with tropical vibes should do the trick.
Parlee Beach has been called one of North America's finest beaches thanks to its white sand and surprisingly warm water.
In fact, the beach in Pointe-Du-Chêne, New Brunswick, is said to be home to the warmest waters north of the Carolinas and has the warmest salt water in Canada.
The beach even has a Blue Flag designation, meaning it meets high environmental, safety and cleanliness standards.
The beach can be found on New Brunswick's Acadian Coast. According to Tourism New Brunswick, "the mid section of the shoreline hugs the Northumberland Strait, a shallow body of water that warms up quickly under the hot summer sun."
So just how warm is the water in New Brunswick? The waters in this area can be warmer than an Olympic swimming pool, reaching temperatures of up to 29 degrees!
Even until September, the water temperature is said to hang around 19 degrees, still making for a very comfortable swim.
Nearby the beach, you'll find shops, boutiques and marinas, as well as the World's Largest Lobster sculpture.
The beach is located less than 30 minutes from Moncton and makes for the perfect day trip. The park is open for use as of May 19, 2023.
If you want to explore more ocean-centric activities in New Brunswick, about an hour and a half away from the beach you'll find St. Martins, a seaside village where you can walk on the ocean floor and explore sea caves when the tide is low.
Grab your swimsuit and head to this beach that's perfect for soaking up the summer sun.
