Sunny Southern Utah is chock-full of fabulous attractions. From national parks to locally-owned businesses, you’ll find plenty of recreation down here.

If you’re looking for a place to cool off, head to the little town of Veyo to visit Veyo Pool. It’s a great spot for swimming and splashing, catching crawdads, camping, and rock climbing.

You’ll find Veyo Pools just 20 miles north of St. George. This place has been around for decades, but it recently underwent some major renovations. If you haven’t visited for a few years, you’re in for a pleasant surprise!

The pool is just the beginning. Take a little stroll into the pretty, shady Crawdad Canyon, where you’ll find even more fun activities.

Crawdad Canyon has a privately-owned rock-climbing park! The basalt walls of the canyon feature 234 bolted climbing routes. Bring your own rock climbing equipment along, sign a waiver, and start exploring.

This place got its name from…you guessed it…crawdads! Also known as crayfish, these wiggly little crustaceans are plentiful here, and you can get a crawdad kit to catch them!

Crawdads love this creek because it’s home to several hot springs that make the water nice and warm.
