subject: Boating, Fishing And Fun Under The Hot Scottsdale Sun [print this page] When you think of cool, refreshing, water based activities, Arizona summer might not be the first thing that comes to mind. For those who travel Scottsdale and vicinity, the secret is out. Whether you"re a weekend captain on your own ship or an angler looking for a new angle, the AZ sun & sand do give way to sparkling oases of aquatic bliss.
If you travel Scottsdale on a regular basis, chances are you"ve at least driven past the Saguaro Lake Marina. Year-round fishing is the name of the game on this multi-faceted jewel set in the Tonto National Forrest. But even if you"re not inclined to hook a bass, the boating, swimming, hiking and jet or water skiing is second to none under the Arizona summer sun. Top off your day with a snack at the Lake Shore Restaurant, where breathtaking, panoramic mountain and lake
views are served daily.
For the urbanites looking to stay cool without leaving the conveniences of the city, Tempe Town Lake offers an array of summer Arizona summer fun activities without the travel. Just outside Scottsdale, Tempe is home to the ASU Sun Devils. The world famous 75,000 capacity stadium that hosts the Devils" enthusiastic fans is perched along the beaches of the Rio Salado. Whether you fancy a boat with a sail an oar or a motor, Tempe Town Lake has your nautical pleasure covered. Sure, the national champion Tempe rowing team trains at the lake, but you can rent a kayak and have a blast no matter what skill level you"re at. Dads can cast a line off shore while kids stay cool (and busy) in Splash Playground. This clean lake park offers something for everyone, especially when you look at the massive calendar of year round events, including music festivals, parades, marathons & parities a-plenty!
And finally, if you desire a reprieve from the Arizona Summer heat, but prefer the water do the work for you, what could be more fun and refreshing than floating down a cool mountain stream? The fine folks at Salt River Tubing want you to soak in the sun and scenery as the majestic mountains meander by, while you sip your favorite chilled beverage. Now this is the way to travel Scottsdale!
