Situated near the picture-perfect village of Sorrento, British Columbia is the gorgeous beach called Meeks Point. It is a large beach with beautiful sand that juts out into the massive body of water known as Shuswap Lake. The beach itself protrudes so much that there had to be a light installed so that boat doesn’t run aground. You can be certain that daredevils have dove off of the light many times before. Meeks Point is a great place to take the family for a fun-filled beach day.
