This sprawling reservoir offers a wide variety
of outdoor activities including fishing,
boating, swimming, jet and waterskiing, sailing
and windsurfing. The dangerously fierce wind
conditions, the widespread distance between
shorelines and the sixty-five miles of shoreline
are special factors you will need to take into
careful consideration when paddling on this
desolate reservoir.
The two most scenic arms on the reservoir
located by the Dinosaur Point Road boat
launch, on the northwestern shore, are more
preferable for novice paddlers. All boats
must travel in a counterclockwise direction,
(including kayaks, canoes, and paddle
boards). The Romero Visitors Center is open
daily except on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
San Luis Reservoir State Recreation Area is
noted for boating, board sailing, camping,
and picnicking. But it’s kayak anglers who
find the reservoir the most inviting.
Striped
bass draw the majority of anglers to San
Luis Reservoir, but
catfish provides the
best fishing opportunities in the spring and
summer throughout the lake’s abundant coves.
