    A nice, scenic park along the Ottawa River, this park is home to the Nepean Sailing Club.  While there's not a big playground or picnic areas, there is a nice short trail and lots of grassy areas.

    While most breakwaters that protect harbors are usually just a long pile of rocks, Dick Bell Park has one of the most well-developed, scenic breakwaters I've ever seen.  It has a well-lit, paved pathway, grass, trees, and benches!  How's that for form *and* function!?!

    Plenty of parking, a boat-launch ramp, and it's conveniently connected to Andrew Haydon Park (which has the picnic areas and playground).
