The beach wheelchair was made possible through a donation form the Shannon Ladies Memorial Volleyball Tournament several years ago. •Beach Matting. The City has purchased fifty feet of beach matting that is designed to make beaches accessible for people who use wheelchairs or walkers as well as parents with children in strollers. The five foot wide beach matting will be used at Canatara Beach this summer and is located at the sidewalk that extends out to the beach. •Lifejackets are available free of use and please visit the lifeguard shack for proper size and sign out during regular lifeguard duty hours. •City of Sarnia has once again applied for Blue Flag Status. Blue Flag is a highly respected eco certification program that awards beaches that meet international standards and more. In order to attain Blue Flag award, our beach will have to meet 27 criteria categories under the Environment Education and Information, water quality, beach management, safety and services.
