Spring Break Bucket List

Check Out Four Uniquely Arizona Outings in March

Locals live for spring in Arizona. The days bring warm sunshine and moderate temps and the nights are cool with endless starry skies. Hiking trails fill up, folks ditch the office for spring training games and good luck getting a tee time! People from across the Midwest and East Coast envy the beautiful weather and flock to the sunshine and outdoor activities. So while the kids are on break and you're entertaining refugees from colder climates keep these activities top of mind.

Scorpion Bay at Lake Pleasant

Soak up the sun at Lake Pleasant. Take a walk along the dock or rent a kayak, pontoon, sport boat or water toys. No matter the experience level, Scorpion Bay has something for everyone. After a day on the water relax and enjoy a meal at Scorpion Bay Grill and take in the magnificent views. For something a little longer term, rent a floating cabin and live the lake life.
