lake havasu city, lake havasu arizonaA Lake Havasu Arizona vacation is attractive to lots of people, especially foreigners who want to experience the extreme summer heat from the comfort of their air conditioned hotel room. Lake Havasu City is literally a hot spot in Arizona, and is easily accessed from the airports located in Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Southern California. Spending a day or two in this spring break favorite in the heat of the summer is quite an experience for people who live in colder climates in either the US or foreign countries. High temperatures like 110 and over are not infrequent in the summer time, and for humans, they feel like being inside an oven or a heat duct with the furnace blowing.

People who visit Lake Havasu City from places where it is not hot need to be mindful of how much water they need to drink. Eight glasses is the rule, but in such hot and dry places, about twice that is required. Since it is so dry, the body evaporates a lot of water, and it dries instantly, so people don't have any idea when they are becoming dehydrated. The same is true for dogs. If you bring a pet to Lake Havasu City, make sure you have ample water for them at all times.
