Lake Mead National Recreation Area encompasses 1.5 million acres (607,028 hectares) of land and water. The powerful flow of the Colorado River is interrupted by that famous feat of engineering, the Hoover Dam, thus creating Lake Mead, one of the largest man-made lakes in the western hemisphere. With over 750 miles (1,207 kilometers) of serene shorelines, Lake Mead National Recreation Area provides ample opportunities for fishing, with the waters of Lake Mead being superabundant with largemouth bass, crappie, rainbow trout, bluegills and channel catfish. Additional amenities include the park's campgrounds, picnic spots, boat and jet-ski rental services, hotels, restaurants, beaches and four different marinas.
