There is no other place in the western hemisphere where you can float in this much salt water! Plus you get a fun boat ride full of great information about the area! The shorelines of the lake are full of bugs so being in the boat keeps you away from them while you swim/float!

- Great Salt Lake State Park - We will head out on our motorized pontoon boat and get some great views of the lake. We will also hear some entertaining stories and history of this world unique area along with a salty joke or two! We will have two stops in the lake where you will get to float in the lake a see how buoyant you are in the saltiest body of water in the western hemisphere. We will have spa pillows so you can lay back and feel total weightlessness or you can swim around. We will have bottled water and light snacks on board to keep hydrated along with buckets of fresh water to wash the salt off of your hands and face. Full showers are located at the marina in case you want to shower after the tour. There can be bugs in the air right when we leave the marina so we will provide you with a bee-keeper style hat to keep them away from your face. Once out on the lake, the bugs are gone. Bring a swimsuit, towel and some sunblock! We also don’t recommend shaving any body part before the tour to avoid stinging with the salt water.

Amazing Bucket List Experience - Great experience. Entertaining Captain, beautiful boat ride, smooth sailing. Unreal swimming in this lake. You really do just float. I simply stood, but it was as if there was a float beneath my feet as I could not sink. Such a strange and enjoyable feeling. This is not to be missed.

Do it. Floating is fun. - This experience was awesome. Our captain Tyler was informative and friendly. Floating on salt lake is hard to explain, but absolutely fantastic. You could literally fall asleep floating. We visited a sand bar that was not like any beach we have visited. It was a blast. Just go.

This is the fourth time coming to SLC and the first time on the salt lake! It was so cool to just float and not need a float lol! I highly recommend!

Recommended experience to float on the salt lake! - It was an amazing experience, we went by boat to a place almost solo, where we could swim and float relaxed. The Guide very good and told us many things. Then we went to another sector where we could walk on the lake.
