Patricia Beach Provincial Park is a provincial park on the south-east shore of Balsam Bay on Lake Winnipeg in Manitoba, Canada.[1][2] The park is located within the Rural Municipality of St. Clements and can be accessed by road from Manitoba Provincial Road 319.[2] In the summer, people relax by the lake on the fine sand beach.[3] During the winter, people using snowmobiles or quads to go ice fishing on Balsam Bay get on to the lake from the south parking lot.[4]
