Lake Powell near Page, Arizona, features a desert landscape, and you can find unique sights there. Nomad Yurts allows you to rent a yurt with your spouse for a glamping experience near Lake Powell. Here are some memorable experiences to include in your Lake Powell honeymoon:
Lake Time
During your Lake Powell honeymoon, plan some water activities for you and your spouse to participate in. You can sunbathe on the shore, or rent equipment from nearby marinas for lake sports. Options include:
- Kayaking: Renting a tandem kayak allows you to stay together during your lake time. This enables you to visit formations up close while enjoying one-on-one time.
- Paddleboarding: Explore desert coves and inlets while paddleboarding; this allows you time to take in Lake Powell at your own pace.
- Fishing: You and your spouse can go on a half- or full-day fishing charter to catch smallmouth, walleye, or bass. These trips are appropriate for beginners and experienced fishers, allowing you and your spouse to learn new skills.
For a unique experience, bring a blanket, camp chairs, and warm clothes to stargaze on the shore of Lake Powell at night. The lack of light pollution makes it easier to see thousands of stars. Play board games by lanternlight, or enjoy a picnic while listening to the water. After your day or evening on the lake, you can use the private bathroom in your yurt to clean off the sand. Nomad Yurts offer modern showers with hot water. Toiletries such as shampoo, towels, and soap are available.
Slot Canyon Tours
Attractions near Lake Powell include the Secret Antelope Canyon; this is one of the longest slot canyons in the Navajo Nation. Taking a slot canyon tour allows you and your spouse to enjoy a six-mile off-roading experience in a shaded truck and see wildlife such as coyotes, foxes, owls, and bobcats. You can take pictures of the sandstone walls and explore narrow passageways. Depending on the tour, your group receives private access to the Horseshoe Bend Overlook. This provides a view of the Colorado River around Horseshoe Bend, and it offers unique photo opportunities.
Boat Tours
You and your spouse can take a boat tour or cruise to unique landmarks. This allows you to see red rock formations and learn more about local history. The Rainbow Bridge boat tour enables you to see one of the world’s largest natural bridges while exploring Padre Bay. Experience the Navajo Sandstone formations on an Antelope Canyon tour, or learn more about the second-largest U.S. concrete dam.
You have the option of booking a private tour for you and your spouse. For a romantic outing, you can also schedule a sunset cruise; this lets you view different rock formations while on a boat. These tours and cruises may allow you to enjoy fine dining.
Hiking Trails
For an active, independent activity, explore one of the nearby trails. One option is Horseshoe Bend; this features a short hike for a canyon view of the Colorado River. Your yurt allows you to prepare food for your hike with a microwave, mini fridge, and farmhouse sink. We also provide complimentary snacks that you can take on outings or enjoy while unwinding in your yurt.
Schedule Your Lake Powell Honeymoon
Other memorable experiences include taking a stargazing tour and exploring the nearby ghost towns. Our yurts offer indoor skylights, patios, and outdoor propane fireplaces to allow you and your spouse to take in the surrounding scenery. Nomad Yurts also utilize unique themes.
