Water Recreation

Big Foot Beach State Park

Swimming

Lake Geneva is known for its clear, clean water. Big Foot Beach has a 100-foot marked swimming area. No lifeguards are on duty.

Boating, canoeing and kayaking

Canoeing and kayaking opportunities are available in Ceylon Lagoon and Lake Geneva. There are no rentals at the park, but you may rent equipment from a local vendor just south of the park entrance.

There is no boat launch in the park. Two public launches are available just south of the park, in downtown Lake Geneva and in Linn Township. The park's northern shoreline is a good spot to anchor and recreate for the day.
