Boating

The Idaho Regatta draws participants and spectators alike to Burley's Snake River waterfront every June. Boat racers from throughout the western United States compete in this national championship series event. Hydroplanes, super stock and other powerful racing craft churn up both water and exicetment on the river!

22 miles south of Twin Falls, Idaho, the Salmon Falls Dam was built in 1910 to provide water for irrigation to farms but now creates a reservoir important for recreation. Anglers will find plenty of brown trout, chinook and kokanee salmon, yellow perch, black crappie, channel catfish, small mouth bass, and walleye. Picnic tables and RV camp sites are available at nearby Lud Drexler Park.  Developed recreation sites along the reservoir are found at Greys Landing, Norton Bay and Whiskey Slough. 

The Milner Historic Recreation Area, adjacent to the Snake River, 9 miles west of Burley, has more than 4 miles of river shoreline and excellent fishing for bass, channel catfish, yellow perch and trout.
