Shoal Beach is a well-traveled part of the Town Lake Trail

Description: Shoal Beach is on the north side of Town Lake, directly across from Auditorium Shores. It is not a swimming beach, but provides water access for fishing and views. There is a peaceful peninsula with an attractive bridge.

Shoal Creek flows into Town Lake here. Green herons and wood ducks are often seen in the creek. The Town Lake Trail continues through this area. See below for links to maps.
