See Hoover Dam up close and personal from your own Kayak or Canoe, paddling through Black Canyon on the Colorado River.
The construction of Hoover Dam transformed an arid desert into one of the most spectacular recreation areas in the southwest. We launch daily at the base of the mightyHoover Dam, and paddle to Willow Beach Marina approximately 11 miles down river.
There are stops along the way to soak in the natural hot springs. You may encounter desert bighorn sheep, and lizards, explore ancient sea caves and hidden coves. Our trips are perfect for beginners to advanced paddlers, and we use the best equipment available.
Our professional and experienced guides will share their vast knowledge in the history of the canyon.
Winter paddling is relaxing, with smooth and glassy waters. Summer temperatures make the cool waters of the Colorado River very inviting and the many hot springs are accessible all year round.
