Long before beach days looked the way they do today, Killarney Lake was already a place where people gathered to paddle, explore, visit, and enjoy a day on the water.

These wonderful photographs from the J.A.V. David Museum collection capture just a few moments from the lake's past.

Some things may change, but the love for Killarney Lake has remained. 💙

Want to take a little trip back in time? Stop by the museum and explore more photographs and stories from Killarney's past.
