Spot Details

Eagle Lake is a 40 minute drive east of Calgary along Highway 1. It offers full facility camping, day sailing and a sandy beach. If you've gone to Chestermere and the conditions don't look very promising, try here. Eagle is subject to different wind conditions because of the unique geography of the surrounding area.

S winds are often gusty, W winds are onshore ... this place can go OFF in strong Northerly conditions with a short steep, breaking swell! The swells have very, very, very smooth water between them so it is a kiters paradise as well. Shallow ... nice kite launch. Check it out in the spring and early summer!

The water occasionally becomes uncomfortably infested with algae by August. Yuk!
