Anglers can fish to their heart’s content, with catfish and striped bass being especially popular catches during the winter.
Bird watching and wildlife watching are also enjoyable winter activities, with the scenic landscape and nearby Lake Havasu attractions and trails providing excellent opportunities to observe local species.
