Sunnybrae Provincial Park

Sunnybrae Provincial Park is a recreation area along the northern shore of Shuswap Lake featuring a wide sand beach and swimming facilities. The grounds extend along the bay with picnic areas and a children's playground for families to enjoy.

The area was established in 1975 by British Columbia Parks as a protected recreational space. This facility was part of a broader plan to preserve natural areas for public use.

The park serves local communities as a gathering place where families participate in outdoor activities and maintain connections with the natural environment.

The park is most accessible during warmer months and has parking spaces, restrooms, and picnic facilities throughout the grounds. Visitors should come prepared with good weather gear since the area can be windy and temperatures are cooler near the water.

A walking trail leads to an elevated vantage point that looks out over Tappen Bay and the community of Salmon Arm beyond. From this overlook, visitors can see the full shape of the bay and the surrounding terrain in one view.
