Visitors enjoy Lake Perris for its diverse
recreational opportunities, including
fishing, paddling, and camping. In many
ways, Lake Perris is similar to Lake
Elsinore—both are popular destinations for
powerboating, jet skiing, and waterskiing
and are located in extremely hot regions,
making spring and early fall the ideal times
for paddling. Both lakes allow a range of
boating activities and have designated
5-m.p.h. zones around their perimeters.
However, there are some key differences.
Lake Perris offers more shaded shoreline
pullout areas and is smaller than Lake
Elsinore. It also features a bicycle and
horseback riding trail encircling the entire
lake, as well as a small island in the
middle that can be explored.
Beyond paddling, Lake Perris is an excellent
fishing destination, with abundant
populations of striped, largemouth bass,
carp, sunfish, bull and channel catfish, as
well as regularly stocked rainbow trout. The
best fishing can be found near the dam on
the back side of the island.
Overall, Lake Perris is a versatile and
appealing destination for a weekend trip or
extended getaway, providing visitors the
opportunity to immerse themselves in nature
and unwind.
