Early light spills across red sandstone and glassy water as the MasterCraft X24 shoves off from Sand Hollow’s marina. Wind tugs at the canopy, the captain calls out a quick safety brief, and the reservoir opens like a wide, drinkable valley—shallow coves, steep sandy beaches, and slick sandstone ledges framing the lake.

Conservation
Boat users should clean and drain equipment to limit invasive species and stick to designated launch zones to protect fragile shoreline habitat.
Reserve your spot on the Sand Hollow Boat Charter for 3 Hours today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Beat the afternoon winds
Book early-morning or late-afternoon slots for flatter water and better wake-surf conditions; mid-day winds can roughen the reservoir.
Sun and heat management
Bring broad-spectrum sunscreen, a wide-brim hat, and a pop-up shade if you plan to linger on deck—UV reflection from the water intensifies exposure.
Weight & safety info
Operators ask for passenger weights for ballast and safety—declare accurate weights and use provided life vests, especially for children.
Prevent invasive species
Rinse and drain kayaks, towables, and footwear after the trip to help stop the spread of quagga and other aquatic hitchhikers.
Sunscreen (SPF 30+)
