To help you plan and enjoy the experience, use this handy picnic essentials list, and select a location based on recommendations from our Southridge faculty and staff!

A few favourite �oca� recommendations!

My favourite local outdoor spot is Crescent Beach. I love being close to or on the ocean and seeing all the birds - my favourite way to experience it is having a sunset sushi picnic on my paddle board in the summer with my husband.

Blackie Spit Park is a great spot for a beach picnic. I tend to visit this location so that my dog Willow can swim in the ocean at the off-leash dog swim park. There are trails to enjoy and on a clear day the views are stunning.

Redwood Park is a lovely local picnic spot with a richness of diverse, full-grown trees from around the world, several open fields, meadows, covered picnic tables with bbq pits, an excellent playground, and a fairy house village. The park truly has something for everybody and is a wonderful place to spend a sunny day.
