Here's something that's not so obvious about
the Grand Canyon State : There's plenty of
water to quench your thirst for a cool getaway. The
image of a dry, dusty desert just doesn't hold up
when you consider the state has 128 lakes and
rivers - including the mighty Colorado. Coupled
with a mild climate year round, Arizona is the
ideal destination for
water adventures from
kayaking to houseboating to rafting.
On the shoreline
of the Colorado River
in western Arizona,
Lake Havasu boasts
60 continuous miles
of lake and river waterways. While the lake
is known as the "Jet Ski
Capital of the World,"
Havasu is also ideal
for diving into dining
and nightlife right on
the water.
But Arizona's ultimate aquatic playground just may be sprawling Lake Powell. At
180 miles long and more than 400 feet deep, it's
the second-largest manmade lake in the U.S.
Powell also features 2,000 miles of shoreline -
that's a lot of real estate! In fact, it's more than the
combined shoreline of the Pacific Coast states. It's
also a luxury houseboater's dream, and you can
spend weeks exploring its labyrinthine canyons
and secluded coves.
