It is better to walk on the sidewalk along the road that leads to the entrance of the wharf. Very limited parking spots there though. The wharf is quite long and you get to see boats and sea-doo for rent. There is also a cafe at the end. It was closed when we got there after 6 pm. Nice views of the mountains and I liked the information board indicating what mountains and places across from the wharf.

Never would've guessed that this wharf (135m) is the longest in North America. Salmon Arm, of all…read moreplaces. Parking here is a bit tricky. There are only 3 spots in the roundabout in front of the wharf. There is another private lot nearby, but I'm not sure if one is supposed to park there. The wharf has a straight section, then curves a bit into Shuswap lake. From the end, there is a great view of the surrounding water and mountains. Great spot to take some photos.

Peter Jannink Nature Park was a quiet and lovely "rest break" for us on a BC road trip and stop in…read moreSalmon Arm. The Park is located on, in, and near a beautiful marshland shore of Shuswap Lake. Access to the Park and its walking trails is located just a short, walking distance from the downtown area of Salmon Arm (with easy access across from Narcisse and Hudson Streets). The visit to the Park provided a very pleasant break and nature diversion from our driving for a while, and we sure enjoyed the sights & sounds (walking trails, gardens, bird viewing areas, many birds - waterfowl and land - the marshland, and Lake). On the initiative of the Shuswap Naturalist Club, this area of the city was converted to a city park in 1999. The park was named in honour of Peter Jannink, the head city gardener, Club member, and active bird-watcher, after his passing in 2003. We found it a lovely, quiet, and natural respite/retreat from the heart of downtown Salmon Arm. We were most-happy and fortunate to have stopped and experienced it.

We are here in the first week of June and the weather is beautiful with flowers blooming which makes the park even more amazing! Parking is available but can get busy during nice weather days!!

As well this place hits 3 pokestops and people would set off Lure playing Pokemon Go. I had a great time here and had to come twice to on two different days to catch rare or exotic Pokemon like Kabuto etc. As well there is a couple of gym here if you want to battle. Parking is not free. So this is definitely not cool. But if you continue to walk along the Riverside, you do hit more and more pokestop along with the nice view.

There are timed buttons the kids use to activate certain parts of the water park. Changeroom/washroom and drinking fountain are on site. Lots of parking. There is a grassy area/field adjacent to the water park so it's also good for frisbee/baseball playing. In addition, the skate park is right there for those who are interested. As a bonus, it is located right besids the Farmers Market (Friday afternoons) so it's a nice family outing to the market and water park.
