A Must-Visit Emerald Lake Before Leaving Las Vegas! 💚🚣♀️

🌊 Willow Beach Marina 📍 25804 N Willow Beach, Willow Beach, AZ 86445 🚗 About a 1-hour drive from Las Vegas, with free parking available—super convenient! 🅿️ 🏞️ Before reaching the stunning Emerald Cove, you’ll line up in your kayak—usually a 10–15 minute wait. You’ll need to paddle backward into the cave for photos. It’s a small opening with limited space, but the water is incredibly emerald green—absolutely worth the trip! 📸💚 🌟 The afternoon light makes the view even more spectacular! The sun’s angle reflects perfectly into the cave entrance, creating that famous bright green color you see in photos! 🌞✨ Pro tip: Use the restroom before getting on the kayak—there are no facilities along the way! ☀️ Sun protection is a must! Bring a 👒 hat, 🕶️ sunglasses, and wear sunscreen or a sun-protective jacket. A waterproof bag is recommended to keep your belongings dry. 👚 You might want an extra set of clothes in case you get wet. 🚣♂️ You can walk in and rent a kayak directly from Willow Beach Marina—just make sure to do so before 2:00 PM.
