The lake has a gray look to it when the wind is blowing because it churns up the sediment on the bottom. The great part about it being so shallow is the nice swells that rip across the entire length of the lake when the wind turns on. It can be 4-5' swells out in the open water of Utah Lake when its cranking near 30mph. Booties are recommended because of hidden objects in the shallows early season. Very sandy beach for an inland lake. When water is low, you can drive to the water. Northerly clearing winds, spring, summer, fall. Some late evening summer thermals. It is a West facing beach and gives nice rides on the North flow much earlier than Utah Lake - South Sandy Beach. It is also very strong on the South wind. South Bay gets a `magical` wind from the North starting around noon almost every day. Many have wondered at its marvel and have gotten rides when there were no rides to be had anywhere else. The Utah Lake water is very warm by May because it is pretty shallow. Cool in spring and fall. Hot in summer. Cold winters. Water: Shallow, Chop, Smallwave, Mediumwave. Features: Parking. Rider ability: Intermediate, Expert.
