From Copper Canyon to the Sand Bar, there are boat parties everywhere on Havasu!
There’s also 300+ sunny days per year here and the water averages a balmy 70-85 degrees year-round.
The Lake is a man-made reservoir behind Parker Dam on the Colorado River.
Lake Havasu is 45-miles long with 400-miles of shoreline. The average depth is 35-feet with a max of 90.
Lake Havasu is especially famous for its London Bridge.
Yes, this is a real bridge that was built in London over the River Thames in 1830. The bridge was meticulously de-constructed, shipped via the Panama Canal to the USA and re-constructed at Lake Havasu in 1971.
Many of the parties take place along Bridgewater Channel, which spans from the London Bridge to Rotary Point.
