Echo Bay ~ Lake Mead National Recreation Area

Echo Bay is a popular spot for winter season RV campers and plenty of boaters use the launch year round. Finding an empty land yacht slip is not easy to do during the peak season, so making campsite reservations is nearly always necessary, which is something to keep in mind when making plans. For those who do car & tent camping, there are usually plenty of open spots in this developed campground, since there is a free dispersed camping area a few miles away. The Echo Bay Marina offers repair services, sales and rentals, so everything needed to make a lengthy Lake Mead aquatic excursion happen can be found in this place.

Echo Bay most definitely is a great choice for a day trip destination. This spot boasts one of the most picturesque shorelines in the Lake Mead National Recreation Area and the steep mountains literally rise up from the water. There is also a vast dry mud wash canyon that runs downhill to the bay that is exciting to explore. The eroded sedimentary rock formations poking out of the water on the north side of the bay look surreal in this desert landscape and a tiny island is within easy swimming distance.

Echo Bay certainly is a picturesque spot and some of the best fishing can be found in these deep waters. Lake Mead is famous for record breaking Striped Bass and trolling with a boat is the best way to land a big trophy for dinner. For those who simply want to relax, splash around and have fun in the sun, be sure to chalk Echo Bay high on the list!
