Due to a water quality issue, Jean-Doré Beach at Montreal's Parc Jean-Drapeau is closed for most of the weekend. The beach is scheduled to reopen on Sunday, August 2. 

In-store for a sweltering weekend once again, Montrealers who were planning on visiting the beach will have to make new plans. If your heart is set on Jean-Drapeau, you can visit the nearby Aquatic Complex where the water is perfect.
