Beaches, Lakes & Rivers
Beach days are the best days in the Shuswap.
From open beaches with plenty of parking, play areas and shaded picnic spots such as Canoe Beach (be sure to stop in to Top Jimmy’s Canoe Beach Cafe while there) to more secluded, boat access only hideaways, whatever your preference, pack up and head out.
There are river banks too, ready for you after a day of floating gentle waterways. Hike further afield to mountain top lakes. Either way, our variety will leave you feeling“beach-side” yourself.
