Sand Hollow Reservoir cliffs

Confirmed by 0 jumpers

Red sandstone ledges over warm blue water outside Hurricane, twenty minutes from St. George and an hour from Zion. Heights run from a few feet up to around 25, which makes it the rare desert spot where beginners and the people doing gainers can share the same rock. The water is the warmest on this map.

Warnings

The park posts a warning sign at the cliffs and takes no responsibility for what happens there. Reservoir levels swing with irrigation, so the depth under a ledge is not the same all season — look before you jump. Jet skis and boats use the same water, and the sandstone gets slick and hot.

Access

Sand Hollow State Park near Hurricane; day-use fee is about $15 per vehicle for Utah residents and $20 for non-residents. Follow the park road left toward West Beach and park at the far end of the lot past the small beach; a short trail leads to the top of the cliffs. The pin marks the west-shore cliff area.

Best conditions

May through September. Water in the 70s and 80s, which is why it is busy — mornings are calmer.
