Anderson Bay is a bay of Atlin Lake in northwestern British Columbia, Canada, located southwest of Pike Bay.{{cite bcgnis|1507|Anderson Bay}}

The landscape surrounding Anderson Bay lies in the Atlin Volcanic Field of the Northern Cordilleran Volcanic Province. During the Miocene period, a basaltic lava flow engulfed the southern end of Anderson Bay. Remnants of this lava flow are present as columnar-jointed lava flows.[http://dsp-psd.pwgsc.gc.ca/Collection/GSC-CGC/M44-2003/Articles/a08.pdf Overview of Neogene to Recent volcanism in the Atlin volcanic district, Northern Cordilleran volcanic province, northwestern British Columbia]
