Bay on Shuswap Lake is a hidden cove with a tricky
entrance located on the southern shore of the lake. Because the
lake arm is so large the entrance to Blind Bay is sometimes missed
due to the angle of the bay in relation to the larger Shuswap
Lake. A landmark to keep an eye out for, marking the entrance
to Blind Bay, is Reedman Point.
In the summer months the lake is a popular recreation destination
for boating, fishing, sailing, canoeing, scuba diving, water skiing,
wakeboarding and tubing. Blind Bay is one of many access points
to the lake equipped with two boat launches and some marinas providing
moorage.
Shuswap Lake is well known for its marine parks, islands and
sandy beaches. At the entrance of Blind Bay is Copper Island which
is popular with scuba divers. Shuswap, Celista and Shannon Beach
Marine Parks are not far away. And, nearby, across from Blind
Bay is the Shuswap Provincial
Park.
In the Blind Bay area there is a small selection of campground
and B&B accommodations available. Book well in advance.
