Boating and Water Sports

San Luis Lakes is the most popular place for water sports in the San Luis Valley. Water sport activities such as water-skiing, motor boating, sailing, and windsurfing are widely enjoyed.

Catch the breeze and glide through deep blue waters against the backdrop of the Great Sanddunes National Park and Sangre de Cristo Mountains.

The lake shoreline is accessible to many watercraft because of the shallow center and gradual sloping sides. A wide boat ramp and calm water make it easy for visitors to load and unload their boats.

All Colorado boating statutes and regulations are enforced by the park rangers. Consult the SLV Lakes Boating Program for more details.
