Freshwater leisure pursuits
Lake activities are recreational pursuits centered on lakes—swimming, fishing, boating, waterskiing, kayaking, and the like.
The phrase appears on tourism websites, summer camp brochures, and vacation rental listings: The resort offers lake activities for all ages.
It suggests a category of outdoor entertainment rather than any single pastime.
