The Lake Adventure
Big Bear by Boat
Treasure Island - 2000
The land sure looks different from the middle of the lake. Somehow you feel smaller and more connected to your surroundings. Explore this wonderful wet world by canoe, kayak, jet ski, pontoon boat, rowboat, or motorboat. Launch your boat from the public boat launches (East Boat Launch, West Boat Ramp), rent a boat from one of the private marinas, or take one of the commercial boat tours. Visit sporting goods shops to learn about the best fishing spots.
