#1 - Acacia picnic site
USA, Arizona
It's the closest 'open water' site from the East Phoenix area, solely used for dive training and as a picnic area. The lake is stocked with fish, but don't expect to see them. It's a man-made rock lake with a sandy beach, and the swimming / dive area has buoys to keep boats and jet skis out. Water temp is usually 50-60F.
From the Phoenix area to Canyon Lake: Take Highway 60 (Superstition Freeway) to Apache Junction. Exit at Idaho Road and turn North to Highway 88 (Apache Trail). Travel 14 miles Northeast on Apache Trail, on the left between the first and second bridges. There's a large sign for the picnic area, with a short walk from parking down to the beach.
