Know before you go
Horseshoe Bend Fee
The Horseshoe Bend parking lot is managed by the City of Page and requires a separate fee not covered by the America the Beautiful pass. Arrive before 8 AM to avoid the longest queues.
Remote Dead Zones
Signal is strong in Page but disappears immediately upon entering side canyons or traveling north on Highway 89. Use offline navigation for all lake access points.
Page Service Hub
Page is the only major fuel and grocery stop for 60 miles in any direction. Fill tanks before heading toward Big Water or Bullfrog.
Arizona Time Zone
Page, AZ stays on Mountain Standard Time year-round, while the nearby Navajo Nation and Utah follow Daylight Saving. Double-check tour times against your phone's auto-setting.
Changing Ramps
Low water levels frequently close the Wahweap and Antelope Point ramps to motorized vessels. Check the NPS 'Current Conditions' page daily for launch status.
