A narrow sandspit jutting about a kilometre east into Osoyoos Lake, with campgrounds and day-use beach areas along both sides. The lake here is the warmest in Canada on average, and the shallow water heats up fast in summer — usually swimmable by late May, and comfortable well into September.
The park is a favourite campground for families, and reservations in July and August are essential. Day visitors get the beach without the crowds, particularly early morning. The spit gives good views back to the town and the dry hills behind it. Wildlife includes western painted turtles basking on logs, ospreys fishing, and occasional American white pelicans. No development beyond the campground and basic facilities — this is a place to swim, lie in the sun, and watch the lake.
