salmon arm wharf印象

Mid October, light jackets, early evening, sun setting and very few people around. A beautiful romantic little walk. We loved it, October was a nice time because the air was crisp but not too chilly.

I can't drive through Salmon Arm without stopping here for a stroll. I'm a bird nut but the whole family loves it here. In May the Western Grebes are doing their courting dances and nesting and it is one of the truly amazing spectacles of nature. These days we usually pass through in August on our way to the Coast (from Calgary). This year we spent the night in Salmon Arm and spent the morning at the pier. The Osprey family was on the nest right next to the pier, and there were lots of shorebirds and Great Blue Herons in the shallows. Saw a family of Pied Billed Grebes, and two Western Grebes were still hanging around. Walk to the end of the pier and have an ice cream. The fellow who runs the place is quite a character and takes wonderful photos of the local birds. We ended up chatting with him for over an hour about at least 10 different diverse subjects, only one of which was birds!

Up the lake and down, you can see so far, this walk on the wharf is not to be missed.. The birds ,(grebes) are so much fun to watch as they develop from babies just paddling to the seniors showing off, a delightful walk on the wharf can renew your energy and love of wildlife. there is a store at the end of the wharf to buy ice cream and hot dogs to tempt your appetite, the view is wonderful ENJOY!

Pretty , nice walk to end of ward and watch birds, boaters and have an ice cream cone. On the right day, stay and listen to concert in early evening, all free. Bird watching is amazing.

This wharf is beautiful! It's a lovely walk out to the end--and once you get there, you can see some of the houseboats! We enjoyed watching the birds, too. There was a nest up on a high pillar that had some activity. We wished we'd brought our binoculars!

I set up on one of the tables in the park to do some work and eat lunch. Nice setting to pass an early afternoon, though parking is for maximum of an hour. There are public washroom facilities and pubs are walking distance away, plus the concession on the wharf.While I was there it was nice and sunny but certain tables have trees right by them to keep the shade on the table almost all day - nice when you're trying to read a computer screen.

I often take a 'scope and go birding on the wharf. The bay with its expansive mud flats on either side is in a super location for shorebirds during both spring and fall migration. There are also several river otters which frolic and play around the wharf.

We visited mid-week and it was very quiet in both the small park and on the pier. Plenty of opportunity to watch the ducks and herons fishing in the reeds. At the end of the pier are sea-doo and houseboat rentals, and a small stand where you can buy ice cream. If you can't get one of the half dozen parking spots near the roundabout, the pay parking lot offers 1 hour of free parking but you must remember to get a stub from the almost hidden dispenser as we did see tickets being issued for those who did not display one on their dash. The small park has some tables and chairs and a small colorful garden. Nice for a break.

love the view with many beautiful birds, the air is so fresh and view is so charming that i couldn't make me leave there.

The view from this area is OK. The best time to go is when the haze is low. The nature trails are short and you may not see much in the way of wild life. But, it is anice walk.
