Review:

From May through Labor Day, you can go swimming on a small but lovely sandy North Beach Park on Lake Champlain, located just off a bike path near the high school. You can also rent a canoe, kayak, stand-up paddleboard, or bike. There is a patch of grass with a few barbecues if you are an enthusiastic cook and a fully stocked snack bar if you prefer having someone else do the cooking.

You can also take advantage of a well-organized campground next door if you decide to spend the night at the North Beach Park, a worthwhile experience on clear nights when the stars are particularly spectacular. If you are looking for things to do in Burlington with the whole family, visit this unique park. The beach has a lifeguard during the summer, and while it is closed in the winter, you can still come by and make a snowman or have a snowball fight.
