Lifestyle

Take advantage of the early morning cool to explore the desert on ATVs or hike the slot canyon natural rock formations at Sara Park. Have breakfast on the patio at Makai Cafe overlooking the London Bridge, or start your day with benedicts and bloody marys on the pet-friendly patio at The Red Onion.

Take your boat out (or rent one!) to do some waterskiing, wakeboarding, or parasailing, or stay close to shore and practice your paddleboarding skills in the warm sunshine. North of the bridge at Lake Havasu State Park, go on a family kayaking excursion, watch the sunset, and spend the night camping under the stars.

On especially hot days, take advantage of the drive-through to pick up a refreshing iced coffee at The Human Bean without leaving the comfort of your car’s A/C. “Feed your inner bear” any time of day with all-American food at the Black Bear Diner, enjoy old-school Italian at La Vita Dolce, or celebrate an anniversary with steak and ribs at ChaBones.

On Saturday night, see a show at Grace Arts Live performing arts theater, or take the family to the Grand Canyon for the weekend - it’s only 3 hours away!
