One of the best parts of our day is working in the water with these amazing birds

What a day it was to be on the water, thank you to all our fantastic customers. Tomorrow, Sunday Aug 18th we will be closed at the beach due to our part at family fun day, sponsored by @townofnewglasgow at @glasgowsquare we will re-open at the beach at 6pm for rental reservations

We love our customers, little things like this put a smile on our face at the end of the day ☀️

Our new setup location infront of the main building in the first parking lot is working great, we are now able to use our paddle board rack 🏄‍♂️

Forgot your sunscreen? We’ve got you covered at our shop. Please note we recently moved directly in front of the main park building in the first parking lot.

Use code word “beat the heat” in the notes section when booking online to save the tax until July 31st

We have incredible news!

Starting July 19 we’ll be selling ICE CREAM at the Merb!

We also sell pop, water, chips, snacks and sunscreen!

Support a local summer business and student employment and stop by for a treat on your next visit to the Merb! Depending on the day you can find us in our trailer or at our info station at the main building.

This Friday evening Paddle and cheer on the dragon boat teams as they practice for @raceontheriver pre-book by visiting our website to ensure availability

People often ask what time of day is the best for paddling, our answer is typically mornings (9-11am) and evenings (4pm onwards)

‼️Did you know we rent paddle boards on the beach side as well as the bay. Paddling the Merb on a sunny day with your toes dipped in the water is a great way to cool off.

We will be open at the Rotary Park a few times this summer! Please prebook online as we will have less than normal quantities of equipment.

We look forward to re opening full time Saturday June 29th to kick off another fantastic season at Melmerby Beach Provincial Park

Our bookings are now open! Until we resume regular operating hours for our peak season we will manually accept booking requests made through our booking platform

Have you wanted to spend a summer working at the Merb? We’re hiring 1 full time staff to work onsite at our shop at Melmerby Beach this summer. The job posting can be found on our website under the contact tab.

The posting will remain open until May 17th. Please email Cover Letters and Resumes to melmerbyadventures@gmail.com

We are super excited to finally get physical gift cards, they make a great gift and came just in time for Valentine’s Day gifts they will be available at @samco.creations weekly at @ngfarmmarket and can be redeemed there or at the beach shop, any denomination $20+ as always digital gift cards are available at melmerbyadventures.ca

We were a little hungry for adventure so we decided to Pura Vida and paddle in the rainforests of Costa Rica

Who wants to paddle the river this fall? 🙋🏻‍♂️ we will be back at the rotary park once again! 🍁Please pre book by texting 902-754-1553 🍁

There’s still time to paddle we will be open until thanksgiving. Once the trailer gone for the season we will STILL be open on the shore of the inner bay.

Let’s pack in summer! We are open today and Sunday!

Happy Labour Day, we are here at the Merb until midday and plan to be open until thanksgiving. If you pop down and the trailer isn’t setup give us a text or call at 902-754-1553 and we will be happy to serve you.

See you at the Rotary Park Sunday! We will be there in our blue rental shop
