Rissers Beach used to be one of my default places to walk. It is one of the closests beaches. However, it isn’t the best for dog walking – or more to the point – it isn’t the best place for me to allow Cali off leash to run after the ball.

As I walked through the park today, I explored both the campground and the beach. I was reminded of just how pretty Rissers it. It makes me understand why it is such a popular beach in the summer. When the Provincial Park is open, it is almost impossible to get a campsite. It is definitely a favourite for people who like to go to one place and stay there for a couple of weeks – which is, in part, why it is hard to get a campsite there. We did manage a mid-week site in June. We are looking forward to seeing what it is like when people are camping there.

For now, I will enjoy the park during the off season, when there are no tourists and mostly the people hanging out at the beach or walking their dogs are local.
