About Utah Lake / South Sandy Beach

Mostly silty, small to moderate chop. The lake has a gray look to it when the wind is blowing because it churns up the sediment on the bottom. The great part about it being so shallow is the nice swells that rip across the entire length of the lake when the wind turns on. It can be 4-5' swells out in the open water of Utah Lake when its cranking near 30mph.

How do I get to Utah Lake / South Sandy Beach?

Take I-15 South bound past Provo to the second Springville exit. The exit has Walmart on the East and Cracker Barrel on the West. From the exit, head West for about 2 miles. The road will curve to the south, you'll pass some old white beehive boxes on the east and then come to a `T` in the road. Turn right at the `T`. Go about 2 blocks and turn North by some farm houses. If you go over the canal you've gone too far. Now you're on the final road to the beach. The road winds through the farms for about a mile then turns to the west and changes to a dirt road for about 1/2 mile ending at the beach.
