Best Lakes in Arizona
Emily Geo
Arizona has some pretty underrated water features thanks to its dry, deserted reputation. The 48th state is actually home to nearly 130 lakes and 5 major rivers! This southwestern state is full of opportunities to hike, raft, paddle, swim, and fish year-round.
In this guide you'll find some of Arizona's top water reservoirs and tips on enjoying them.

Greetings fellow Earth-dwellers!
🏜️West Coast kid at heart (lived in AZ & OR)
📚Studied abroad in B.C. Canada
📍Now I call the Southeast U.S. home
🌍My passion for sustainability shines through everything I do. I currently work for an outdoor retailer and I love sharing outdoorsy recommendations and breweries.
I've been to over 20 National Parks and am exicted to create localized guides for them!
Conscious travel doesn't have to include finding a spot off the grid, living out of a van, or only eating vegan food. I enjoy sharing local businesses, environmentally-focused travel tips, and authentic and respectful ways to spend time while you're away from home. Check out my city guides and trip recommendations for mix of eco-tourism and enriching plans anyone would enjoy!
