Charles Daley Park is a spacious public beach park located to the west of and a ten-minute drive away from city St. Catharines.
It is located very close to Queen Elizabeth Way, and therefore, the south side of the park is a little noisy, but on the north side of the park, visitors can enjoy a tranquil atmosphere and a view of Lake Ontario.
On a nice day, Toronto can be seen across the lake.
The park is well maintained and clean.
Quite a few visitors may be seen while visiting as it is somewhat a big park and located along a busy road.
"The park is named in honor of Charles Daley, a member of the Progressive Conservative party who served the Legislative Assembly of Ontario from 1948 until 1951 for the riding of Lincoln." (exploringniagara)
The park does have a little beach a bit away from a main area.
Main shoreline area of the park is a maintained trail which directly faces the lake. A number of benches are placed on the trail, facing the lake.
In the middle of the park is a little facility with public washrooms, a stage at which seemingly, events regularly take place, and roofed areas with tables and seats where visitors could enjoy a picnic meal.
There is also a lookout point at a little hill from which the lake can be looked down on.
A clean boardwalk is along the hill.
The park also has a clean and organized playground which kids can enjoy.
