About This Beach

Boulder Bay Park is a scenic gem on the southwest shore near Big Bear Dam, featuring impressive natural boulders framing stunning lake and mountain views. Built in 2010, this beautiful lakeside park offers excellent swimming and wading with easy lake access. It's particularly popular for kayaking and SUP, with Big Bear Kayaks offering dog-friendly rentals. The gravel walking path winds through distinctive rock formations. Two covered pavilions with picnic tables and grills make this ideal for family gatherings. The park's dog-friendly policy (on-leash) makes it especially popular with pet owners who want to enjoy the lake with their furry friends. Clean restrooms and poop bag stations add to the appeal. Small parking lot fills quickly, so arrive early during busy times.
