This Lake in the Western U.S. Is Called the ‘Caribbean of the Rockies’

"As a popular shore fishing spot on the Utah side, Bear Lake State Park Marina is recommended for anglers who want to try catching the lake’s native and endemic fish without going out on a boat." - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.

My family had a blast going to this beach. The water color is incredible as it is so blue. We were shocked on how clear the water was and lack of fish and sea weed in the beach area. There are restrooms and showers on the property. Lots of people were renting water equipment, plus bring their own things. We were shocked on how cold the water was for the middle of July. Beautiful place to go!

Beautiful Lake! Cannot wait to go back! Found this cool rock too 😎 kids ages 15,12,12 & 3 and both parents (in our 40s) lived it there!

It's a stunning spot with fantastic photo opportunities. The only thing I will say is that if you are allergic to bees dont stop here. lol . The amount of wasps,yellow jackets and bumble bees here were astonishing!!

Love Bear Lake! Water can be cold at times but overall a great place to boat, swim or just sit back and relax. My family camps at rendezvous campsites which most lead right down to the beach. We also enjoy going into town and getting raspberry shakes as it has become somewhat of a tradition. I would recommend Bear Lakes to anyone.

Even with the winter, the lake is absolutely stunning. Worth driving past, especially after a big snow. The mountain drive into the area is beyond gorgeous. I would recommend anyone take the drive and do it at sunrise with clouds in the sky. You will not be disappointed.

We camp at Birch Campground right along the beach. It’s the most amazing lake you’ll ever experience! The water is so beautiful and blue! The sunset is incredibly amazing!

West shore very crowed, but plenty of restaurants and free rest areas for day use. East shore has four campgrounds (one closed at this time) with gorgeous sunsets. Although this side is nicer in my opinion, it is full of disrespectful people (dogs unlashed that poop with no control, groups with loud music).

Wonderful place, we were there for business just for a couple hours, but it was the most relaxing lunch I had in this trip. Highly recommended,
