Lake Havasu City is the perfect balance for both water and desert lovers. With the best of both worlds situated just of Interstate 40 on Arizona Highway 95, vacationers flock to the lake and surrounding areas for the location off of the Colorado River situated between craggy desert peaks. This small town boasts 300 days of sun per year and over 400 miles of coastline on beautiful Lake Havasu. Although the town population swells with visitors, those seeking solitude can still find pristine coves, isolated hiking trails, and tranquil waters. This “Personal Watercraft Capital of the World” offers so much in outdoor adventure including fishing, kayaking, bird watching, and water skiing. In addition, unparalleled dining and shopping experiences can be found throughout the town. All-American cuisine can be found at restaurants like the Barley Brothers Brewery, Big John’s Steak & Rib, and Mike’s Pub and Grill. Great shopping can be found in the English Village area and on Main Street in the Uptown District. Visitors will be pleased to find upscale boutiques, souvenir shops, antique stores, and much more. |
The area is full of attractions for the whole family, as well as, extreme outdoor opportunities for the adventuresome. One of the largest draws to the area comes from the London Bridge spanning Lake Havasu. The bridge was one of the original London Bridges that was sinking into the Thames; literally, the London Bridge was falling down. It was auctioned off and bought for $2,460,000 in 1968 and erected in Arizona on October 10, 1971. Every visitor must spend at least one day on beautiful Lake Havasu. Bring your own watercraft toy or rent a boat or Jet Ski for the day. If you prefer being chauffeured, take a cruise on an authentic paddlewheel boat and see why Lake Havasu is known as one of the most picturesque places in the world. There are also plenty of outfitters offering fishing trips, jeep tours, and horseback riding. Golfers will love playing with views of Lake Havasu, the Colorado River and, the surrounding mountains, framed by the attractive fairways and rough desert landscape. Shopping, dining, or just relaxing in the warm desert sun, Lake Havasu has something to offer for everyone! |
