- 💚💦 It really is Emerald colored!
Welcome to Emerald Cove, one of the most epic paddle board adventures we’ve done in Arizona!
🏄 We love our IRocker Blacken SUPs, and try to put them in the water wherever we can! Check out our favorite IRocker paddle boards here: tinyurl.com/3s4rz3yj
Our time in Yuma is over but we’ve got a couple more AZ adventures to show you before we make it to Oregon for the summer. First stop is Willow Beach Campground in northwest AZ, which is part of the Lake Mead Recreation Area.
🟢 Emerald Cove gets its name from the brilliant, greenish hues that light up the water when the sun’s at just the right angle. Emerald Cove is a small notch in the Colorado River canyon wall with the closest access point being Willow Beach Marina located on the Arizona side of the river.
🌊 It’s slightly challenging as you have to paddle 2 miles to the cove and 2 miles back. Just make sure to bring lots of water and sunscreen! There are also several guided Kayak tours that will take you to Emerald Cove. Or you can rent your own equipment from Willow Beach Marina.
❤️ Such a beautiful location and adventure. Highly recommend checking out Emerald Cove!
Hi! We are Thomas and Victoria, and we are starting our adventure as full-time RV newbies. We sold our stuff and bought a truck and RV (all within 5 months). We are joined by our Adventure Puppies - Outside Oreo and Backyard Barley - in our Kodiak Ultimate travel trailer. We hope you get some value out of our full-time RV living experience! Subscribe and follow along with our adventures, mistakes, and mishaps.
We are excited to be going to Oregon for the summer!

Where is your favorite place to go paddle boarding or kayaking?
Awesome video we are getting ready to do this trip next weekend🤙🏻✅
Thank you 🙏 hope you all have the best time!
That water was so clear and amazing, looked very cool and refreshing! Thanks for taking us along.
Never seen clearer water! It was beautiful.
Batteries can go bad in a heartbeat, my 2016 F150 had the battery go bad a month after I bought it. Great news we finally got approved for an rv!!! We are so excited we had to pass up on contracts out west cause no hotels. We will finally get to head west!
What a stressful situation! But that’s amazing! Congrats! Good luck. 😃
watching you paddle the wrong way was hilarious. and wtf were those trunks! LOL looked like kids.
Good talk sir 👍

Went once in 2020 looking to go back this year. It's one of the prettiest places I've ever seen.
It really truly is! Will never forget this paddle session!
I support travel nurses and puppies. Subscribed.
We appreciate that 😂
Luv it you guys are fun I love Willow beach we will be there sept 26 and then at the base of Hoover dam sept 27th with our little 20 h.p. motor. Your girl is so cute
Enjoy your time at Willow Beach!
Hi guys... great upload 🎆
Did you guys go July of last year? & was the water greenest when you guys made it to Emerald Cove, or as you guys were leaving?
It sure how much time of year changes the water color but we were there in June. The river is pretty clear normally but you definitely know when you’ve hit Emerald Cove because the greenish color is so drastic!
Since I wanted to go to a basketball game at Mandalay Bay Tuesday night.... I hit up Willow Beach that afternoon starting from Orange County, CA at about 7AM.
It was 110 degrees so I felt like I was going to pass out getting sunscreen on & the board inflated.
I thought I had inflated it enough, but then another visitor had a powered pump which showed that I only had put 2 PSI 💀, so his machine filled it up to 12.
The moment your legs feel the cold water, it immediately becomes so much easier to breathe!
The headwinds were quite frequent, so it took me 2 hours to get to Emerald Cave, but it was empty so it was pleasant having it all to myself for about 15 minutes.
The return paddle took maybe 45 minutes.
& luckily traffic in that region is minimal so getting back to Vegas was a cinch.@@ProjectRVLivingLost
How long did you guys paddleboard from the launch to the cove? Looks far😂
It’s 4 miles total from Willow Beach
Thoughts on going around August?
It's gonna be really hot in that canyon at Willow Beach in August. But, you do have the river to cool down. Just make sure to stay hydrated out there! 💦
Where were the dogs when you were at the beach ? Do they allow dogs to go on the beach?
Dogs are definitely allowed at Willow Beach!
Did you go in a weekday or weekend?
I think it was a Tuesday in June. All of the guided tours keep it pretty busy in the summer.
@@ProjectRVLivingLost OK, I was planning on going in June too. I thought it may have have been less busy in a week day. Do I still have to reserve a paddle board ahead of time if I don't want to go on a tour or can I just show up and rent one?
Dude how manly of you to have your woman drive I would take your man card but obviously someone has already taken it😂 🤣😁
Very forward thinking of you 👍😂
