Boat rental in Arizona with Click&Boat

Most people consider Arizona to be a dry desert-like state in Southwest America. But it actually has quite a few lakes that are the perfect destination for cooling off from the heat! Popular cities throughout Arizona include Phoenix, Scottsdale, Sedona, and Tucson. This landlocked state offers a range of beautiful topography including mountains, desert, and lakes — but it’s best known for the Grand Canyon. Millions of people visit the Grand Canyon each year to experience this magnificent landmark. You can hike along the trails of the upper rims or backpack along the canyon floor with opportunities for white water rafting!

To explore the Grand Canyon State from a different perspective, Arizona boat rentals are available with Click&Boat. We have plenty of vessels ranging in size and purpose for cruising around Lake Havasu, Scottsdale, and Fort McDowell.

Where to boat in Arizona

Boating in Arizona means taking advantage of the freshwater lakes and rivers throughout the state. While the state is known for land excursions such as hiking, biking, camping, or skiing, there are about 128 lakes and 5 river systems throughout the state. Marinas and boat ramps are at most lakes, which makes it easy to start and end your Arizona boat rental. Cool off on the water — here are the best places to boat in Arizona:

• Lake Powell offers a totally unique and beautiful boating experience! Thin, crystal clear water surrounded by red rock formations. It’s stunning. Lake Powell is a popular destination for watersports such as waterskiing, tubing, kayaking, jet skiing, and more!
• Lake Havasu is actually dubbed “Personal Watercraft Capital of the World” because the lake offers plenty of opportunities for cheap boat rentals in a beautiful setting. The lake is shared with California, so you can be in two states at once!
• Lake Pleasant is an easy drive from Phoenix and offers an excellent location for fishing, camping, boating, and hiking. The lake is somewhat small, but boating here is - for lack of a better word - pleasant.
• Lake Mead - also shared with Nevada - is broken up into different bodies of water that are ideal for water sports such as boating, kayaking, canoeing, water skiing, and wakeboarding. You can even fish in Lake Mead as it hosts striped bass, catfish, rainbow trout, crappie, and more.
• Sanguaro Lake is a cute destination for a day on the water. It has a small beach that you can pull up to.

Things to do and see in Arizona

Arizona is a fun state to visit if you enjoy the great outdoors! People who love to hike will appreciate the scenery and those who love to camp have endless options for sleeping under the stars. If you’re planning a trip to the Grand Canyon State, here are the best things to see and do in Arizona:

• Tour Canyon de Chelly National Monument! It’s home to a contemporary Navajo Indian community and offers incredible hiking trails.
• The Grand Canyon is difficult to see all of it in one day. But if you’re limited on time, opt to go with a half-day tour so that you can learn about the land and what makes it so special. If you’d rather explore on your own, the rims offer incredible hiking trails, and the canyon floor hosts camping and white water rafting activities.
• Antelope Canyon is one of the most Instagrammed destinations in the United States. You must go with a guide (as per the law) and only a limited number of people acquire permits to visit each year. If you snag a permit, this magnificent canyon is definitely worth a visit (and a photo shoot).
• Travel to Sedona, Arizona if you crave a spiritual and relaxing getaway. Sedona is known for its vortexes (energy funnels) and crystals, which draw millions of visitors each year.
• Petrified Forest National Park is home to the Rainbow Forest Museum where you’ll find paleontology exhibits that showcase fossils and the history of the land.
• Camelback Mountain is a popular hiking and camping destination, but also mountaineering! You can climb Camelback Mountain, which has an elevation of 2,704 feet.
• Take a drive along the famous Route 66 and stop to take photos of the desert landscape!
• Rent a boat in Lake Havasu with CLick&Boat and spend the day cruising around the water. Better yet, opt for watersports like waterskiing if you’re into it!
