Life’s a Beach Contest – 2016 Winners
We’re pleased to announce the winners of the 2016 Life’s a Beach Photo Contest, hosted by our Blue Flag Canada program. For the contest, we asked Canadians to share with us their best images of what they love about their favourite Canadian beach—such as the sun, surf, sand, or people having fun. And they did! We received hundreds of entries from across the country.
Thanks to everyone who entered and congrats to the winners!
1st place – Christine Higdon (Etobicoke, ON). Prize: $1,000 gift card
Caption: Summer, Little Hirtle’s Beach, Kingsburg, Nova Scotia, on the South shore. This is not a Blue Flag beach but it sure could be!
2nd place – Chris Hartman (Regina, SK). Prize: $500 gift card
Caption: A visit to British Columbia’s China Beach on Vancouver Island is not complete without a race. I am pretty sure someone cheated.
3rd place – Wesley Pitts (Hantsport, NS). Prize: $250 gift card
Caption: An endangered piping plover at St. Catherine’s River Beach, Kejimkujik Seaside, Nova Scotia. One of my favourite little shore birds.
