Ma-Me-O Beach, Alberta, is a summer village located on a small sandy beach on the southeast shore of Pigeon Lake, in Alberta, Canada. It is located approximately 100 kilometres southwest of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The winter population is about 90 people. During the summer months, there could well be over 2000.
Ma-Me-O derives from the Cree words for "place of many shore birds".
During a tour of western Canada, English recording artist, Joan Armatrading, who recorded for A&M Records, the label owned by Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss, saw the road sign for Ma-Me-O Beach and liked the name that she later used it as a song title. The song was included on the 1980 release Me Myself I.
