There is a small, sandy beach and a large grassy area on the shores of Figure Eight Lake in the Provincial
Recreation Area. The lake has a very low depth and the boat launch is only available for hand launching.
Fishing is a popular activity here and there is also a small campground, a picnic shelter and a playground.
Figure Eight Lake takes its name from the shape it had before 1970 when the water level was low; in
these earlier days the lake had two basins and resembled a figure eight.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is still essential. Only go to the beach if you are able to keep 6 feet or 2 meters away from others. Follow the instructions provided by your local health authorities. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter our efforts to curb the virus’s spread.
