Evening Lake, also known as Evening Lake Home is the third Home World in Spyro: Year of the Dragon and in the Reignited Trilogy remaster of the third game. It can be accessed after defeating Spike. Evening Lake features a vast lake, a majority of the portals underwater. It has a ruined Tudor-medieval style castle submerged in the lake. It introduces the Invincibility power-up, similar to the two homeworlds before it. Many towers are situated in and around the lake, often housing portals. There are many smash-able walls in the world. There is also a large shipwreck here and, interestingly enough, a whale swims around the lake indefinitely.
Story
Upon arrival, Bianca warns Spyro that the Sorceress has set a trap for him and tried in vain to dissuade him from continuing his quest on rescuing the Dragon Eggs. After Spyro completed two realms, Hunter discovers a switch on the ground and presses it, only to fall right into the trap that was set for Spyro. This prevents Spyro from accessing Hunter's challenges in various realms until Spyro defeats Scorch and reaches Midnight Mountain when Bianca defected to Spyro's side and frees Hunter.

Glitch
There is a glitch which allows you to swim in the air and see the cage Hunter is placed in during a cutscene, and the belly of the whale. If you enter the belly of the whale a second time, you will encounter a Game trap. This glitch requires the Dead Mode glitch in order to be done.

Trivia
Original Game
- In the September 4, 2000 prototype of Spyro: Year of the Dragon, Ling Ling from Bamboo Terrace refers to Evening Lake as "Sunset Shore", an early name for the level.
- In all versions of the game except the Greatest Hits version, this home world shares its theme with Sunrise Spring. Despite this, Evening Lake's theme is in the data of all versions of the game, but it goes unused.
- This is the only home world in the game where its realms don't contain any Sheila portals.
- The Professor was originally going to appear in Evening Lake, but was cut from the final version. The audio files can still be found in game, wherein he talks about having lost his rocket plans.
- In Fireworks Factory, Greta briefly mentions "the Pwofessor's wocket".
- The portal to Bentley’s Outpost and the entrance to Starfish Reef are the only gateways that are above water.
- The developers were going to have the Spaceship underwater, but they would have had to make a little tunnel for it to appear there, so it was cut.
- Ted's name is likely a reference to Ted Price, the CEO of Insomniac Games.
- The dragon you rescue inside the whale is named Jonah. Jonah is a character in the Bible that was actually swallowed by a whale (or a giant fish, as the scripture says).
- In the original version of the game, once you collected the egg inside the whale you could not re-enter the whale's stomach. However, in the Reignited Trilogy you can still go inside after obtaining the egg.
- Additionally, Jonah is the only baby dragon in the game to do a walking handstand animation.
