About 2 hours away from Flagstaff sits beautiful Lake Powell. Whether you are boating, jet skiing, swimming or cruising on the houseboat your options are endless to explore and enjoy this area.
|
We parked the houseboat in a beautiful canyon, isolated from other houseboats. |
Lake Powell is a reservoir on the Colorado River and stretches between Arizona and Utah. There are multiple ways to access the lake and so many places to check out. The lake is gigantic so finding a place of your own shouldn't be too tough.

I am literally cave swimming. Fish are all surrounding me, but to say I've swam in a cave made it worth it. |
Lake Powell gets insanely hot over the summer. But as soon as you are in the water you will be golden. The water stays beautifully cool. We would hop in in the middle of the night just to cool off.
|
Near Padre Bay, we are surrounded by canyons and places to explore. |
|
Lake Powell has plenty of space for you to seclude yourself. There are also plenty of beaches for you to lay out on, park a boat or jet ski, etc. |
What To Bring:
- Water--lots! It is hot out there.
- Food- I usually pack an ice chest
- Towel
- Camping Equipment if you are planning on camping
- Boat/Jet Ski- there are beaches you can park at but to really see the lake I recommend renting a boat or jet skis.
