  • Los Angeles-Long Beach, CA (1888PressRelease) May 19, 2014 - News of the California drought has flooded the airwaves but Big Bear Lake is open for fun and events as usual. Visitors are invited to check things out for themselves by planning a trip to the four season mountain lake resort nestled in the San Bernardino National Forest.

    Serena Saunders, marina manager at Captain John's Fawn Harbor & Marina (North Shore) and Captain John's Marina Big Bear (South Shore) said, "Big Bear Lake is open and this year visitors will find more public lake beach access which makes it great for fishing and picnicking. Hiking and biking are favorite activities too. If you want to beat the heat, come spend the day on the lake or on our lake shore beach."

    Big Bear Lake is located in the San Bernardino Mountains at an elevation of 6,750 feet and is easily accessible from Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego, making it a favorite destination for Southern California residents. Lake levels are lower than last year but this means access to more lakeside beach areas for lakeside strolls, bird watching and shoreline play.

    Popular lake sports include stand-up paddle boarding (SUPing), kayaking and canoeing, lake boat fishing, water skiing, wake boarding and annual events on the lake include a number of fishing tournaments and a paddle fest.

    Saunders said, "We are gearing up for the summer with a few unique celebrations such as our 3rd Annual Memorial Day Summer Kick Off Party, National Marina Day, Dog Days of Summer Pet Adoption event and our Independence Day Extravaganza. Something is happening every week, so come up and be sure check out our new SUP paddle clinics, SUP fit classes, and eco-friendly boat tours or private lake boat cruises."

    Other events scheduled for the summer include a Kid's Beach Bash, Paddle Palooza, Labor Day Shin Dig and the marina recently began offering an outdoor lakeside event location for parties and weddings and other community oriented events.

    Amazing weather conditions allowed marinas on the lake to open early this year. Big Bear Lake is open seven days a week and it is a short scenic drive from Los Angeles, San Diego and surrounding areas.
