Too Salty to Sink In! Great Salt Lake Sightseeing Tour

It’s true! The Great Salt Lake is so salty that it is impossible for a person to sink while swimming in the lake. Swimming in the lake feels quite strange…it’s as if an imaginary inner tube is beneath you, pushing you to the top!

Visit the Great Salt Lake on a fully-narrated 2-hour guided tour that departs from downtown Salt Lake City. On the drive to Great Salt Lake you may see some of the 257 species of birds that visit Great Salt Lake every year as part of the Central and Pacific Flyways for migratory birds, numbering several million a year. You’ll take in the beautiful Rocky Mountain views that surround this inland sea as your guide shares stories and history that you’d never get on your own. Reservations are required and can be made online.
