LAKE HAVASU
from View - Arizona
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 58,000 by 2022.
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 – provides even more opportunities for fun and excitement in Lake Havasu City all year long.
