As Regina Beach rests on shores of the south end of Last Mountain Lake, it becomes an active lakeside resort town in summer. To the east is Buena Vista, their boundary marked by 16 Street. About 5.6 kilometres (3.5 mi) south of town in the RM of Lumsden No. 189, is the Regina Beach Airport.[3]
Regina Beach Recreation Site (50°47′33″N 104°58′30″W[4]) is a provincial recreation site on the western shore of Last Mountain Lake. The park runs along the lake's shore in the town of Regina Beach from Centre Street South to 16 Street. Park amenities include a large sandy beach area, picnic area, beach volleyball courts, children's playground, boat launch, and a fish filleting building. This is no overnight camping.[5][6]
Just off shore, Sask Aquatic Adventures has a water adventure park set up.[7] It is one of several in Saskatchewan.
The Regina Beach Golf Club is a 9-hole golf course that opened in 1969.[8] It runs along the south side of town and includes a restaurant and lounge. The total course length is 3,151 yd (2,881 m) and is a par 35.[9][10]
