Anyone wishing to use the lake with personal watercraft will be provided with a set of lake rules at the time of purchasing a launch permit. These should be adhered to strictly as the lake is a Site of Special Scientific Interest.

 

To conserve the banks and the wildlife, there are restrictions on how many people can take to the water and where boaters can go, with buoys marking the no-go zones. 

​

PLEASE NOTE: There is a 8 kilometres per hour  (5 m.p.h.) speed restriction on the lake for motorized craft, unless towing a water skier/ring/wake boarder.  You may be declined use of the lake if it is felt that your boat is not capable of maintaining the speed limit. It is important that you are aware of all the conditions relating to the use of the lake.

​

​

Please familiarise yourself with the Lake Rules regularly as amendments sometimes occur.
