MacCormack Beach Provincial Park is a small picnic park overlooking the Bras d'Or Lake, in the community of Plaster Cove, in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, located in Victoria County on Cape Breton Island. The park entrance is off of St. Columba Road, just 0.3 kilometres (0.19 mi) north of Iona, Nova Scotia. Civic address: 2481 St. Columba Rd, Iona, Nova Scotia.

As one of few public access points to Bras d’Or Lake the park provides beach access with opportunities for beach walking, carry-in boating, and offers picnic tables scattered through a softwood forest overlooking picturesque Plaster Cove (Nova Scotia). There is a public wharf and protected beach under Beaches Act adjacent to park.
