Willard Bay has become the ideal spot for anything water related. Whether it™s splashing near the shore, carving the water™s surface, reeling in hefty fish, birding or camping on the beach, you really can™t go wrong with a visit to the Bay. Willard Bay is also a great destination for stand up paddleboarding, including both beginners and stronger paddlers looking to take in the sights.
The state park operates two marinas, the north and south. Both are equipped with modern campgrounds, boat launches, restrooms, waterfront picnic areas, and docks. The North Marina has sandy beaches that are equipped with cabanas making them the perfect place to spend the day.
Throughout the year, Willard Bay is an interesting birding destination, especially bald eagles in winter. Make a reservation on the Utah State Parks reservation site.
