Paddle the Colorado River’s Black Canyon, explore Emerald Cave, and find hidden beaches on a self-guided full-day rental from Willow Beach.
About this tour
Trade the Las Vegas bustle for a day on the Colorado River, where the Black Canyon’s rugged walls frame calm water, tucked-away beaches, and the route to Emerald Cave. This self-guided rental lets you explore at your own pace, with a choice of kayak, stand-up paddleboard, or canoe.
Set out from Willow Beach with your selected vessel and enjoy a full day on the water. Look for local wildlife, paddle toward the famous Emerald Cave, or pause at a hidden beach along the way. The rental includes all fees and taxes, and launch support helps you get started. The experience is described as suitable for all fitness levels, with weight limits of 300 lb for single rentals and 500 lb for tandem rentals. Willow Beach is less than an hour from Las Vegas, making this an easy change of scenery from the city.
Choose your vessel and make the Colorado River your own for the day with a Las Vegas kayak, SUP, or canoe rental.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 5 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Las Vegas
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.4.
