Drifting on a houseboat on Lake Powell
Arizona is home to more than 300 lakes and Arizonans rank near the top in the United States in terms of boat ownership per capita. Canadians looking to having a wet summer should look no further than Arizona, and in particular Lake Powell, which is located on the northern border of Arizona and Utah.
The city of Page is your gateway to Lake Powell, the second largest man–made lake in the world. Lake Powell, a mecca for houseboating also caters to swimmers, sunbathers and anglers. With the allure of 2,000 miles of shore line, visitors have plenty of opportunity to relax and enjoy a variety of water activities on the sandy beaches of Northern Arizona.
Lake Powell offers a range of houseboating adventures. The houseboats are equipped with everything you need for a unique holiday experience. Families and friends have the option to rent a houseboat and visit the Wahweap or Bullfrog marinas or even the new Antelope Point. There are houseboats for every size family or group with all the amenities and a full selection of water toys, which is great for the kids (and the adults too!).
Houseboat vacations can be relaxing or very active as well – fishing, scuba diving, snorkeling, jet skiing and water skiing are only a few of the fun activities available. Speed boating, wake boarding or guided kayak tours are also available.
Another option is to combine houseboating with a camping trip. Pitch a tent at the Rainbow Bridge RV Park and Campground or stay at one of the hotels in Lake Powell or Page. Visitors can discover the rich culture of the Navajo Nation during their vacation by taking a tour of the largest Native American reservation within the U.S.
Escape the smog alerts and noisy traffic and plan the perfect houseboat getaway at Lake Powell. It is an ideal place for families, groups and couples to relax and savour the cool breeze and tranquil surroundings of Northern Arizona.
