Haines Lake Recreation Area

Waterfront for swimming and paddling, woods for exploring, fields for play - the Haines Lake Recreation Area has been used by various groups, including Digby Area Recreation, for day camps, paddling lessons, and workshops.
The Municipality of Digby continues to seek partner organizations who need space for outdoor activities. The Municipality is also working on plans for further developing the site as an outdoor recreation facility.
Besides the waterfront, beach and docks, the Haines Lake Recreation Area has a group shelter with two plumbed washrooms.
See below for more detail on facilities.
