We’re compiling a list of some favourite seaside spots, parks and beaches in several categories, and want your help.

We want to know: Where’s the best spot to see the sun setting over the water? What’s your favourite seaside walk? What’s the best kid-friendly beach around?

Ocean views

• Take in a sunset without leaving your car

• Other great drive-in spots where you can just park and enjoy the view

• Worth the walk. You’ll have to walk a bit to get to these areas

Best beaches to…

• Romp with the kids

• Eat a sandwich. Easy-to-get-to beaches where you can take your lunch break

• Best beach to make out. We’re not looking for parking spots, just somewhere with some privacy

Send an email to [email protected] with the category, your nomination and a brief description of where it is and what makes it a great place to go. Please put the words “ocean views” in the subject line and be sure to include your name and the municipality where you live. We’ll publish some of the top picks in an upcoming feature.
