Lake Powell, a masterpiece of nature sculpted by the hands of time, invites you to embark on an extraordinary adventure with Antelope Canyon Kayak Tours. Situated in the heart of the American Southwest, Lake Powell emerged following the completion of Glen Canyon Dam in 1963. Over the span of 17 years, the reservoir gradually filled, reaching its majestic full capacity on June 22nd, 1980.

​

At its zenith, Lake Powell boasts a staggering water depth of 583 feet near the dam, with an average depth of 132 feet, holding over 27,000,000 acre-feet of water—a volume equivalent to flooding an entire Midwest state with a foot of water. Unlike any other American lake, Lake Powell resembles a flooded Grand Canyon, stretching across two states, Utah and Arizona, and two time zones.

​

Spanning over 2,000 miles of shoreline, Lake Powell offers a playground of exploration with 96 side canyons waiting to be discovered. From the iconic Rainbow Bridge Canyon to the serene Antelope Canyon, each alcove boasts its own charm and allure. Engage in slot canyon hikes, relax on sandy beaches, or marvel at the breathtaking views—the possibilities are endless.

​

Beyond its natural splendor, Lake Powell is home to Rainbow Bridge National Monument, showcasing the largest natural bridge on Earth. Accessible by boat or a brief hike, this monument epitomizes the magnificence of the region.

​

The creation of Lake Powell ushered in significant economic prosperity to the area, transforming the quaint town of Page, Arizona, into a vibrant tourist destination. With three main marinas and an array of recreational activities, Lake Powell offers endless opportunities for adventure and relaxation.

​

While Lake Powell attracts over three million visitors annually, solitude can still be found amidst its secluded bays and coves. Exercise caution in the main channels, where boat traffic and canyon walls create choppy waters. Seek solace in glassy reflections and savor the tranquil moments as dawn breaks over the canyon walls.

​

As night descends, Lake Powell transforms into a celestial spectacle, offering unparalleled stargazing opportunities amidst its vast expanse. With minimal light pollution, the lake becomes a sanctuary for campers, beckoning travelers to bask in its nocturnal beauty.

​

Ultimately, Lake Powell's greatest gift lies in its provision of water to the Colorado River basin, sustaining over 40 million people. Join us at Antelope Canyon Kayak Tours and immerse yourself in the wonder of Lake Powell. Experience its magnificence, revel in its beauty, and discover the magic it has to offer.
