LAKE HAVASU

Blue Jewel of the Desert

In the instance of Lake Havasu City, it’s all in the name – the main attraction is

the lovely lake around which activities and leisure in the community revolve.

The beaches that hug the shores are famous for being a virtual oasis in the

desert, with opportunities for swimming in the clear water and boating on

the tranquil waves.

Located in Mohave County, Lake Havasu City was once just part of the

rugged bank along the Colorado River. In the 1930s, the construction of the

Parker Dam led to the creation of what now serves as a mecca for those who

love the outdoors and make the most of using it as a playground. “Havasu”

is the Mohave word for “blue water,” and while the lake is undoubtedly the

star of the show here, the surrounding area also offers miles of picturesque

trails, a variety of interesting wildlife and red rock vistas that all harmonize

to create a true symphony of nature.

Once Lake Havasu City was established in September 1963, a vigorous

marketing push brought prospective buyers to town, offering remarkable scenery and a tempting refuge from cold climates. The city wasn’t formally

incorporated until 1978, and decades of steady growth followed, with a

population of over 53,000 by 2016.

You may have heard the tale that the London Bridge was moved to Arizona.

Well, the story is true and it can be found in none other than Lake Havasu City,

gracefully spanning Bridgewater Channel. It was carefully reconstructed after

an elaborate relocation process from overseas and was officially dedicated

in a well-attended 1971 ceremony. Today, it is a celebrated attraction among

those who choose to traverse this unusual piece of history on foot, as well

as boaters who anchor in the shadow of the iconic bridge.

Aside from the obvious draw of its striking landscape and colorful history,

a full calendar of events – including boat racing competitions, classic car

shows and a popular balloon festival – provide even more opportunities for

fun and excitement in Lake Havasu City all year long.
