Great Salt Lake State Marina is home to the Great Salt Lake Yacht Club, which boasts the saltiest sailors on earth. Visitors will enjoy the beautiful views of Great Salt Lake, nearby Antelope Island State Park and Black Rock.
It’s difficult not to notice the nearby Saltair Resort, a modern-day remnant and symbol of the original Saltair, built on pilings over the shore area of the Great Salt Lake.
Opened to the public as a state park in 1978.
