Go Fishing on Big Bear Lake at Boulder Bay Park
Fishing in Big Bear Lake is fun for the whole family. Drop a line from your boat, or from the shore. Locals say the north shore has some of the best spots for catching trout, bass, and carp. We also love Boulder Bay Park with its large fishing dock, picnic area, and stunning views. Fishing licenses and tackle can be purchased at any marina and many of the local shops.
If you like the sound of that, why not book a Boulder Bay cabin as your home base on your trip to Big Bear?
Rent a Boat from a Local Marina and Cruise Big Bear Lake on Your Own
Boating on Big Bear Lake is one of the most popular activities during the summer season. On a sunny day, you will see all kinds of boats out on the water. Enjoy a different view of this stunning lake as you explore coves, inlets, islands, and beaches. If you do not own a boat, you can rent one from one of the many marinas around the lake. Big Bear Marina is a wonderful place to rent a boat for your “boat day” excursion!
Try the Alpine Water Slides
Take a break from the lake, and take a ride down the Alpine water slide. Riders can enjoy twisting and turning through refreshing crystal blue waters, before making a big splash into the heated pool. Thrill seekers can also enjoy other attractions at the Magic Mountain Recreation Area – Soaring Eagle, Mineshaft Coaster, go-karts, and the Alpine Slide.
