Lake Somerset provides a great variety of recreational facilities, along with being a part of southeast Queensland’s water grid that supplies the region’s drinking water.

Enjoy the day-use areas at Kirkleagh, The Spit, Somerset Park and Westvale. Designated swimming areas are located at Kirkleagh and The Spit.

Motorised and non-motorised watercraft are allowed on the lake including water skiing, jet skiing, wakeboarding and tubing.

Don’t forget to grab your boating and fishing permits before heading out or dropping a line.
