Rates for Seasonal and Daily Passes

Boat launch and parking fees vary depending on whether you are a resident or non-resident and are subject to change annually.

Those who violate this regulation will be subject to a fine of $150 plus fees.

Additionally, no person shall camp in (or park overnight) a motorized recreational vehicle and/or a recreational trailer. However, docking your boat for the night is allowed between 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. only.* 

*If you are docking your boat at night, you must pay the $35 docking fee, payable at the Sports Complex counter or directly on the Amilia platform.
