Saskatchewan is home to roughly 100,000 lakes, more than enough to satisfy water sport and fishing enthusiasts alike. As the summer months are approaching, prepare your boats, personal watercraft, rec vehicles and docking for a season of fun at the lake and on the water. The weekend is your chance to get out on the water with friends and family, relax after a hard or stressful week and just unwind, whether that means towing the kids on an inflatable, carving up the water on a pair of skis or a wakeboard, spending a quiet morning fishing, or just hanging out on the sandbar with your friends. Boating is an activity that lets your family bond and enjoy quality time together with no distractions, building memories that often last a lifetime. It’s also a great way to relax and decompress, just getting out or near the water instantly rests our brains, is meditative and promotes play and induces creativity. Visiting the lake also gives you countless opportunities to meet others who share your passion.


Putting a spotlight on Waskesui Lake, which can be found central to the Prince Albert National Park and home to numerous seasonal activities including wilderness trails, rentals at the Marina and plenty of options for camping and lodging. Waskesui is a great place for outdoor adventures on and off the water.
