Lake Havasu is a top destination for water-based adventure and warm-weather fun. Boating, jet skiing, paddleboarding, and hot air ballooning are all part of the local lifestyle. Add in scenic ATV trails and lakeside dining, and it’s easy to see why this city draws both spring breakers and active retirees alike.

Lake Havasu is also a great overnight stop when road-tripping between Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon Skywalk, and Grand Canyon National Park.
