Fodor's Review:

The dress code at the neighboring Casino de Montréal might ban camisoles and strapless tops, but here anything seems to go on warm summer days, when the beach is a sea of oiled bodies. You get the distinct impression that swimming is not uppermost on the minds of many of the scantily clad hordes. If you do want to go in, however, the water is filtered and closely monitored for contamination, and there are lifeguards on duty to protect you from other hazards. A shop rents swimming and boating paraphernalia, and there are picnic areas and a restaurant.
