Oka Beach will be operating at a reduced capacity to respect social distancing and by appointment only, according to Sépaq.

It's underlined that "only those who have obtained their daily access right online in advance or who have their annual card will be able to access the beaches."

If the beach is at full capacity, however, you might still get refused access! So arrive early. Daily updates will be posted on its Facebook page.
