The area of the water surface of Kenon is about 16.2 square kilometers. There is a sanatorium on the lake, a recreation center and a tent camp. In the freshwater reservoir there are perches, roach, pike, golden karas. Fans of fishing say that catching the predominant golden carp weighing about three kilograms is not rare luck, and it is not inferior to the sazan in taste. Perfectly took root once imported, in 1924, in Lake Kenon perch, and recently there was another new species for the area - white Cupid.
