Port Hope offers two beaches, east and west of the Harbour. Both are sandy and provide access to Lake Ontario. These beaches are steps away from historic downtown Port Hope. Like all beaches, the "open" or "posted" indicators refer to the amount of bacteria in the water. Always check for flags in the parking lot of Port Hope East Beach before going in the water. Beaches are not regularly tested for other contaminants. From time to time, cleanup of low-level radioactive waste or harbour dredging activities may make Port Hope beaches inaccessible.
