Snorkeling in Great Salt Lake City in Northern Utah

Things to do / Travel Guide

Snorkelers who can bear the chill often bring their own gear to plunge into the waters of Bear Lake near the Idaho-Utah border, Strawberry Reservoir near Heber City in Uinta National Forest, and Flaming Gorge Reservoir near the Wyoming-Utah border. If you need something closer to body temperature, however, try snorkeling in northern Utah's toasty-warm Bonneville Seabase, in Grantsville, which features three bays fed by hot springs and stocked with schools of colorful tropical fish. This landlocked, northern Utah mini-ocean offers snorkeling gear rentals on-site. Observant snorkelers will see tiny seahorses, nurse sharks, 50-pound pompano, and plump puffers, among countless other fish from around the world. And regardless of the weather outside, you'll be enjoying 80° temperatures year-round.
