Boating & Water Sports

02. WaterSports CollageGiven its many coves and arms, Shasta Lake is an ideal location to take your boat. Don’t have one..? Don’t worry! There are a number of boat rental options. (See bottom of page.)  Take one of these boats out for a peaceful day of fishing or a wild ride on the wakes. Whatever mood you’re in for, it’s all available*, and with Redding being the second sunniest city in the US, you’re bound to want to take a ride on the cool emerald green lake. Due to the 365 mile shoreline, you would never have to boat in the same cove for more than a day!

Another unique activity you may want to check out is the Lake Shasta Dinner Cruise. They provide a “mouth-watering menu, gorgeous lake setting and beautiful sunsets”. Check out their website for tickets and departure times http://www.lakeshastadinnercruises.com/
