Whiteswan Lakes
Whiteswan Lakes is a popular chain of recreational and fishing lakes located 36km NNE of the Resort Village of Candle Lake and 105km NNE of Prince Albert.
It is the furthest south lake where you can catch Lake Trout in Saskatchewan (outside the Prince Albert National Park). Whelan Bay is closed to fishing from September 10th to November 10th.
Whelan Bay, the southern section of the lakes is accessible from Highway 913 (gravel). The furthest north lakes are relatively inaccessible. Whiteswan Lake (Whelan Bay) Recreation Site is on the southern end of the lakes and contains Whiteswan Lake Resort. The resort has a licensed restaurant, rental cabins and seasonal campsites.
Whiteswan Lake is a very popular snowmobile destination with over 170km of snowmobile trails in the area.
The lakes are also popular for diving and are known for their clear water.
This lake has been personally visited by myself, Matthew Siemens.
