We camped at Monck Park and paddled Nicola Lake.    It can be a windy lake, but it can usually be paddled in the mornings.

On this trip we paddled down the lake twice and up the lake once.    The shoreline south of the campground is more interesting.

There are a number of rocky bluffs overlooking the lake and bays to explore.

Although we have paddled out across the lake, it is best to check the forecast first.    It is a big, windy lake and rough water can be found in the afternoons.

Our favorite part of the lake is the north end, accessed from a pullout on Highway 5A.
