Another hot sunny day, enjoyed sitting on grass watching boats and windsurfers etc.. Nice cafe on site, boat hire and wet suits for hire. We had a wander around town, worth a wander, and had an interesting drive round the lake.

The Lake has beautiful views and is great for water sports. The Bala adventure and water sports staff were really friendly. We hired kayaks and paddle boards enjoying our experience on the water.
