An oasis in the desert, Lake Powell is the second largest man-made lake in the US and certainly the most scenic, with pristine blue water washing up against striking red rocks, buttes and mesas. The lake stretches 186 miles from Page, Arizona to Hite, Utah and is surrounded by the Navajo Nation Reservation. Lake Powell is part of Glen Canyon National Recreation Area administered by the National Park Service.

Lake Powell offers some of the finest water recreation opportunities in the world. It is the the second largest man-made lake in the United States, and visitors can bring their own watercraft or choose to rent houseboats, personal watercraft, powerboats, kayaks and all other imaginable water toys. It is a water babies paradise! With comfortable water and air temperatures extending into the months of October and even November, Lake Powell offers year-round recreation opportunities. The Christmas parade of lights on the Lake is magical!

Lake Powell History and Geology:
In 1869 Major John Wesley Powell led an expedition into the area as he explored and area that is now officially known as the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. Lake Powell is 186 miles from end to end and has nearly 2,000 miles of shoreline (exceeding that of west coast of the United States). With over 90 major canyons, Lake Powell offers plenty of space to find your own solitude and secret places to discover! The entire Glen Canyon National Recreation Area area is home to over 170 species of birds, 800 different mammals, and over a dozen reptiles! The world’s largest natural bridge, Rainbow Bridge, was discovered here in 1909 and is accessible from Lake Powell. It is considered by some to be one of the Natural Wonders of the World. Five separate rivers, of varying sizes, feed into and form Lake Powell. These include the Colorado River from Colorado, the Green River from Wyoming, the San Juan River from New Mexico, the Escalante River and Dirty Devil River from Utah.
