America Las Vegas Lake Mead

A natural lake is wonderful for us to visit but
what about Lake Mead which is the largest man-made lake and reservoir in the United States. Want to take a look? It is located on the Colorado River about 30 miles (48 km) southeast of Las Vegas, Nevada, in the states of Nevada and Arizona. The lake is divided into several bodies. The large body closest to the Hoover Dam is Boulder Basin. The narrow channel, which was once known as Boulder Canyon and the original planned site for the dam is now known as The Narrows, connects Boulder Basin to Virgin Basin to the east. Lake Mead offers you many types of recreation to locals and worldwide visitors. Boating is the most popular one. Other exciting activities include fishing, water skiing, swimming, and relaxing in the sun. There are several marinas on the lake that rent luxury houseboats: Forever Resorts and Seven Crowns. With other smaller ones that rent small boats. The area also has many coves with rocky cliffs and sandy beaches to explore. There are several small to medium-sized islands in the lake area depending on the water level. In addition, the Alan Bible Visitor Center has a small cactus garden of plants native to the Mojave Desert. I’m sure you won’t regret planning your next holiday here…
