Boulder Beach Campground

Hosted by National Park Service

New listing

Boulder Beach Campground is located just minutes from Las Vegas along the Boulder Basin of Lake Mead. It's open year-round and features large paved sites that can accommodate tents or large RVs, along with tables, fire pits and/or grills. Boulder Beach itself is about a 20-minute walk from the campground. Temperatures usually surpass 100F (37C) June through August. In May and September, daytime highs are around 90F (32C). October through April, temperatures are much cooler, and lows can dip to freezing December through February. The area averages 4 inches of rain each year. Boulder Beach Campground is like an oasis, because of the lush vegetation that shades nearly every campsite — a mix of palm trees, oleanders, mature cottonwood trees and native vegetation that also helps provide privacy between sites. Most campsites offer views of Lake Mead, Fortification Hill and the River Mountains. Wildlife in the area includes many species of birds and lizards along with antelope squirrels and coyotes. Boulder Beach, Special Events Beach, Canoe/Kayak Beach and PWC Beach are 1–2 miles away, where you can swim, kayak and jetski. If you prefer to explore the park on land, the paved River Mountains Loop Trail passes right by the campground; it is more than 30 miles long and leads to the Historic Railroad Tunnel Trail near the Alan Bible Visitor Center. Other nearby amenities include the Hemenway Harbor fishing pier and boat launch ramp, boat rentals and dockside dining at the Las Vegas Boat Harbor or Lake Mead Marina, and Lake Mead Cruises, which runs seasonally to the Hoover Dam and back. Air tour noise may be present at times throughout the day. Each campsite provides space for up to eight people with one camping unit, such as a motor home or camp trailer, and a maximum of two motorized vehicles, four motorcycles or a combination thereof. Paved roads lead to each site, and the sites are asphalt or concrete. There are multiple water spigots and restrooms spread throughout the campground; the restrooms have sinks and flush toilets, but there are no showers. Accessible sites are available, and an RV dump station and water refill station are located near the entrance. The Hoover Dam is just minutes to the south along U.S. Highway 93, and nearby Boulder City has multiple dining, shopping and adventure options.
