testimonials

Our renters voice, so simple & so reliable.

Like most people, I was pretty reluctant and weary for how my out of country reservation would go, but this company (Cancun Boat Rent) has absolutely changed my perspective. They have one of the most seamless booking systems I have ever used, the kindest staff available at all hours if you run into an issue, friendly captains, and top notch coordination. Seriously, I did not have to stress a single moment when working with this company. I cannot thank you enough.

Amazing Price for an Amazing Boat

I am astounded at how affordable all the rental options are on Cancun Boat Rent. As someone who spends time comparing the pricing of every single company - with quality in mind - this company had the best quality AND the best prices! Allow me to save you time and express my deepest recommendation to not look any further. Thank you for the time of my life, thank you for the convenience, and thank you for making everything so simple!

Top Notch Business Quality

My company gave me the role of booking our business getaway. After working with multiple rental companies in the Cancun area, this one by far excelled all of my expectations. The managers are so easy to work with and took almost all coordination off my plate.

My Perfect Family Boat Rental

An absolutely flawless experience with Cancun Boat Rent. My wife and kids rented a beautiful boat for 2 weeks and did not run into a single issue. I cannot express how convenient it is to rent everything you need from one all in one source - that is reliable! We rented jet skis, catering, music, and a captain - and everything was so smooth! I definitely recommend this company for your renting needs. They gave me one of the best vacations I have every had with my family!

Cancun Yachts Club - Reviews

"I can not commend or recommend Cancun Yachts Club with any higher praise. We have done a trip like this for the last 10 years with multiple companies and this trip by far was the best. The vessel itself was outstanding as was the crew and the food. Our whole group of 10 felt that this was the best day we have ever had on the water. They are already planning for next year. Nestor and the company are outstanding and we can not thank you enough." Can not to start planning our next one. Doug"

We had a spectacular day on a fantastic boat with a very happy and very professional crew, it was an unforgettable day that we spent with all my family and we hope to return soon to repeat it 100% recommended.

Outstanding time on the boat today! Crew was fantastic and I museration greatly exceeded my expectations. Very well done from booking with you until we returned from the trip. Please be sure to pass that along to all involved.

It was a great experience for every one, we all enjoyed our selfs and the crew was great!

Spent the afternoon with the best captain and mates ! Service was amazing .. they took us to isla mujerea and we swam and jumped off boat!! Great fabulous day so worth it

I contacted Nestor and he did a fantastic job planning our yacht he worked everything out to fit our needs. The crew was unbelievable and the chef made amazing food! My family had a amazing time and we made memories we’ll keep forever! I highly recommend! Thank you to everyone who made this day unforgettable.

We rented a 460 Sea Ray Sundancer for 8 hours on our anniversary Jan 6, 2019. I was leery of booking something online in Mexico but the communication, rates and deposit due prior to arrival made me feel at ease. I had multiple questions about weather and other misc things leading up to the day and all emails were replied to in a timely manner. Transportation picked us up from our resort in Playa Mujeres on time. They upgraded us to a larger boat upon arrival. The boat was clean and the crew was very attentive to our needs. They provided guacamole and ceviche for our on board snack - I would recommend asking to upgrade the food to an actual meal if you’re planning on doing the 8 hour day. The weather held up to be a perfect day and they chartered us around to various places per our specifications of what we were looking for. They had food for the fish when snorkeling and quickly stopped by the Isla Mujeres Dock to get more mixers for us so we didn’t have to pay the $30 docking fee to tie up there. It was the most memorable anniversary yet and the crew, yacht, and communication leading up to the day was five stars all around. They even took pictures of us through the trip. I price searched all over the area and their pricing was hands down the best in town! We will be booking through them again our next visit the Cancun without a doubt.

My girls and I rented through this company for my bachelorette party. It was the best decision ever!!! Thank you so much!!! Highly recommend this company!!!

What a great experience!! Nestor was great to work with for the booking and the boat was everything we wanted. Our crew was amazing and the food on board was so amazing! Our captain was Joel and our first mate Miguel and they made us feel at home. They even arranged for our transport, everything was perfect. We cruised around, anchored, swam and saw the sights, an amazingly relaxing day! I will use you guys again!!

Was the high lite of our vacation, yacht we chartered was exactly as described on website. The crew was very good, and attended to all our needs. We booked yacht for 8 hours, did some snorkeling, swimming, dined at a cafe in Isla Mujeres on shore and cruised the island. Very well priced too, would highly recommend Cancun yachts club for your next yacht charter. We will definitely re book next time we're in Cancun.

We rented the Searay 46 for a Hen party and we surely had such an amazing time and experience. Nestor was quick and efficient and special thanks goes out to the crew (Lupe, Lucas and Leo) for being so helpful and attentive.

Our boat exceeded our expectations!! Thank you for such an unforgettable day! The food was amazing especially the guacamole! We will definitely contact you again next time we come back!! Thank you for making it a great day with a wonderful boat!!!!!!!

I just wanted to thank you and your crew for the day on the water. We all had the best day our entire holiday the day we went out with your crew.

I just wanted to thanks you for everything regard the Yacht and the Crew!!!! They were excellent! We had a wonderful time and the Chef- WOW - The Lobster and steak were amazing! Thanks again! Sinerely;

My wife and rented the Sea Ray 44 for a full day on the water. Captain Tito and Angel were our crew and they were absolutely amazing. They made our experience top notch from start to finish! They were very accommodating to all our requests and would 100% recommend them to friends or family.

I would like to thank you for the fantastic service we received. The boat and crew were more than we expected. The crew worked hard and no one aboard wanted for anything they provided a high quality of service. Thank you so much.

My Husband & I Had Such A Memorable, Romantic Evening/Night...Everything Was Perfect Atmosphere, Food & Staff Were Amazing. My Husband Enjoyed His Surprise He was All Smiles... Beautiful Yacht... Thanks For Helping Me Make My Husband's Birthday Even More Special.. The Dinner SunSet Cruise Was Worth Every Dollar!! Just Beautiful!!!

We booked a Sunseeker 56 yacht through cancun yachts club for my wife's 30th Birthday and we were blown away with how good the yacht was and the quality of service from Miguel and Alain on board. Customer Service does not come much better than what we experienced on the yacht that day. The whole experience, from booking with Nestor through to the transport back to the hotel was hassle free and done with a smile. I would highly recommend using cancun yachts club to anyone who is planning a private yacht excursion with friends or family. A day and birthday that my wife and family will never forget. Thank you Nestor, Miguel and Alain.

Had the best day ever on our yacht with 12 girls for my bachelorette .. The crew were amazing and your company are so fantastic . Picked us up from our hotel and dropped back again.

Loved our day on the boat and the crew was amazing! We had a great day snorkeling and riding around Isla Mujeres. Thanks for everything!

We had an amazing time! The guys on the yacht were amazing and the whole time was one I will never forget. I would recommend to anyone and hopefully do it again myself when I return. Nestor was a great too and was all on hand to help with any enquirers.

This was my 3rd time using Cancun Yachts Club. Was up graded to a bigger boat because issues with mechanics on the one I had originally chartered. Great prices and accommodating to all our needs. The Captain Johnathan and Mate Dave were Fantastic. From serving food - Drinks to helping us with the snorkeling and places to go. We all had a Fantastic Time. Will definitely use you again. Thanks for the Great Memories!!

We had so much fun. The crew was excellent and we can't wait to go out again with y'alls group. Everything from start to finish was superb. Thanks again for such a wonderful day!

Boat was very nice crew was AMAZING. timing and cruise experience was perfect. Customer service was on point and helpful. Good job!

I recently was on my Honeymoon in Playa Mujeres and chartered the 72 Sunseeker as a surprise for my wife any myself. I have never chartered a boat like this in the past and had many questions. First Nestor was very fast to respond and answered all my questions quickly... Learn more about this comment on tripadvisor

I booked the 55ft Atlantis for a bachelor party. The yacht was great, everything we hoped for and more. The crew was very friendly and accommodating, making sure all our need were fulfilled and everyone was happy. I dealt with Nestor through email booking this trip. Nestor did an amazing job of lining everything up for us. No detail was missed. Nestor fulfilled every request we had. I can't thank everyone involved enough. This bachelor party was everything we expected and more. Thanks to everyone involved! I would highly recommend booking with Cancun Yachts Club.

This is the second year we enjoyed a cruise with Cancun Yachts Club. The service from the captain and his staff was excellent and we had a great day of cruising, swimming and relaxing. We'll definitely be doing this again next year!

I booked the sunset dinner cruise to do a proposal to my now fiancé. The crew was awesome photographer was great even captured a video the views were incredible best money spent and the meal was amazing I inform anyone that wants to do something like this to rent through these guys it was a surreal experience.

Thank you for making this happen,we had an amazing time! The Captain and crew were nothing short of perfection. Please send my gratitude to the photographer her picture were absolutely beautiful.

Had an amazing time on our day trip! The yacht, crew, captain and Nestor handled all our needs! Can't wait to back!

just wanted to thank you for a fabulous time on the yacht we rented in Cancun. This is the second time we have rented from you and it was even better than the first Please pass on our thanks to Vincente and Abraham (1 and 2) they were great too, see you next time...

What an amazing trip!! We took the 2hour sunset dinner cruise and had a blast. The food was good and the crew was even better. I would definitely recommend...

Just wanted to say thank you, once again for the hospitality and superb service of your yacht charter service. After reviewing and screening other private yacht charters, I had a gut feeling to go with Nestor of cancunyachtsclub. Not only, are this guys, professional and so sweet but the best prices in town. Ask for sweet Cesar and the very nice Captain Ray! I love you guys and I will be back soon!!!!

I would like to thank Nestor and the rest of the staff on providing an amazing experience. Our group of 12 came down to Cancun for a bachelor party and our highlight was definitely the day we spent on the yacht. The crew was friendly and the utmost accommodating. No details were missed on our requests. Highly recommend and will be back again! Thank you!

We just wanted to share with you what a wonderful day we had yesterday on your yacht. Everyone had a terrific time. Your crew were very friendly and helpful and made us feel very much at “home”. Even at the end of the day no one was rushing us to get back on board the boat after our swim and head back to port. I am not sure if we will ever rent a yacht again but we will most certainly recommend you. Thank you for helping making our 10th anniversary very special. Ian & Monica

I had been working with Nestor for over 7 months to plan my proposal on one of there amazing Yachts. I am sure I asked over 100 questions and with every email Nestor sent back not only was it sent in a timely manor but he answered every question and made me feel everything would run perfectly. The day of my proposal the yacht looked fantastic, the crew was AMAZING, ACCOMIDATING, and all around FLAWLESS! The food that the Capitan and crew handmade was the best meal I had in Cancun! My now fiancé and all my friends and family LOVED this experience. Without Nestor I don't know what I would of done. Please do not hesitate or think twice Cancun Yachts Club is the best! Nestor is FANTASTIC and will not leave you disappointed. I cannot express in text how much I loved this experience! So check out our video I made of the day on the yacht!

The boat and crew were excellent. Our party had a great time. Everything Nestor told us was true. We recommend this company to charter a boat while visiting Cancun. Thank you Nestor, we look forward booking another yacht from you again when we return.

I rented the 460 Sea Ray Sundancer for an 8 hour day. We had a 2 crew on board which included the Captain. They were both extremely laid back and attentive. They kept the drinks flowing, took care of some people that got seasick and got them back to feeling well again... Learn more about this comment on tripadvisor

You guys made this the perfect experience! Thank you so much! The Boat was amazing and the crew was awesome. They took care of everything. We had a beautiful sunset and it all made a perfect setting to propose to my fiancé! Thanks again for one of the most memorable moments of our lives!

Had a fantastic time on the sea ray 47. The food was lovely and the service was excellent. Didn't let you do anything for yourself. Had a very fun and romantic time - thank you! Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed our day on the water! The boat was pefect for our group and the crew were excellent and provided great service. Nestor was especially helpful in seeting up the day for us and meeting or specail requests. We will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful time yesterday on the yacht. Captain Paco was very nice and accommodating and his crew were very friendly. Food was very good. We had a great experience and will be sure to book another yacht with your company on our future trips to cancun. Thank you for all your help!

My experience was amazing! My boyfriend was very excited and surprised! The yacht was PERFECT, and the food was great... The food was a tad cold and I wished we took the cruise easier because we did really Get to see the sunset...... :) however we will be back..,

Thanks for the help with the boat we will definitely use Cancun yachts club again, I am here every other month.

Thank you again for your assistance with coordinating the cocktail cruise for my friends. We had an incredible time! The crew was great and kept us entertained. My next trip to Cancun and Riviera Maya I will use your company again.

Nestor was awesome and very accommodating. The boat was exactly as pictured and described. The girls and I had a great time: 4 hours was not enough!Hotel pickup and drop off was arranged. Staff was very nice and friendly. Highly recommend.

After contacting the yacht club a few years ago, Nestor arranged our first trip. My family and I were very pleased. I then contacted Nestor again recently to arrange this trip. I asked him for some ideas for an itinerary. He presented me with an outstanding itinerary and took care of ALL the arrangements for me. My family and I had the perfect day swimming with the dolphins, snorkeling, etc. The captain and mate were just as outstanding as well. We have already discussed with Nestor and the captain a possible itinerary for our next visit to Cancun. We wouldn't think of using any other company for our excursion. Nestor does an amazing job for me! We look forward to continuing to work with Nestor!Sincerely,Steve Dekelbaum.

Booked the Atlantis as a surprise for my Fathers 50th birthday and couldn't have asked for a better day! Crew were fantastic and the yacht was beautiful. Will definitely book again.! Thanks Nestor, my Father had an unforgettable Birthday. Will recommend to anyone I know going to Cancun.

Just want to say thank you so much! Everything was perfect and the crew was amazing!!! The food was amazing and the yacht was fantastic!We will definitely do it again next time we come to cancun.Thanks again!.

We had a great time. We will definitely return and next time!!We love the place, extraordinary.Special thanks to the extremely polite crew you have (Alfredo and Hebert)..

We rented the Atlantis 55 and it was above our expectations! There was 13 of us and it accommodated everyone. Plenty of room, the food they had on the boat was great as well! The 8 hour trip was perfect! If you're looking for a luxury yacht for your trip to Mexico I highly recommend them!

First of all i want to say thank you to Nestor who help me with everything i needed.The boat was amazing , the service , the food , everything was just perfect.Thank you Cancun yachts club for helping me propose in the most amazing way.

We had a great time! We were taken to an island where we did get screwed over on the conversion a little bit when they gave us the total and then ran it in Pesos only giving us about a 9.5 conversion rate when it was supposed to be closer to 13. Also the deck crew took it upon themselves to order food on our tab without asking which I guess was fine since we just used it as there tip. Other than that the boat was great and Nester was great to work with!

Great day out,yacht was excellent and crew just amazing and professional, we were celebrating a friends 97th birthday and this company made it such a manageable and enjoyable trip... Learn more about this comment on tripadvisor

Restaurants such as La Habichuela Sunset that combine Mexican cuisine with international flavours like grilled salmon over mashed potatoes, offer an unforgettable experience for any palate looking for unique dishes, not commonly seen elsewhere in Mexico City proper, but only here at this small yet charming city along Riviera Maya coastline!

FLAWLESS 46ft + JET SKI (included on 4, 6 or 8hrs rental). SEARAY SUNDANER 46 ft

Jesed and her crew made our trip! the communication, the dedication, the willingness to go above and beyond was incredible. we were treated like royalty and it could not have been better. if we lived closer, we would rent every week. :) thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the perfect experience. turquoise waters, schools of fish, snorkeling, docking, shopping, swimming, eating, drinking... it was truly a dream.

Alex was the absolute best! I had the best birthday, best captains and best price for value. The boat was in incredible ! I will choose Alex and his services again and again here in Mexico! They also took insane pictures of us !! Thank you for making my birthday the absolute best !!!! When I’m back in Mexico I will go to Alex again! Thank you can’t be grateful enough.

Private 35' Catamaran Sailing to Isla Mujeres

Wow, what an amazing trip with such a fun crew! We were a group of 12 that were able to fit more than comfortably on the catamaran. Joe was super helpful and promptly answered all the questions I had prior to the ride. The itinerary was perfect as we were able to snorkel, cruise around and also had a couple hours to visit Isla Mujeres which was beyond beautiful! I would definitely do this again!

38ft Troyan Motor Yacht in Cancún

The booking process was easy and straightforward. We were upgraded at the dock so that was nice and we thoroughly enjoyed the boat. We also enjoyed our time with the crew… they were very informative and provided us with a great tour and hospitality. We will book again.

Thank you to Alex and his team. The boat was beautiful spacious and clean the crew members were absolutely amazing accommodating are needs.communication was great Alex responded back quickly to answer all questions definitely recommend booking with Alex be back soon.

FLAWLESS DORAL 48ft + JET SKI (1 hour included on 6 hours o more boat rental)

You need to book with Dino and Jesed! Don’t even continue looking at other options! Amazing value and experience with these folks!! They went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible. We had accidentally left all the souvenirs behind and left with our private transportation without noticing. Jeses called 15-20 minutes after to tell me we left it. Our driver said he would pull over because Jesed said she would bring it to us. She took a bus to bring it to us!!!! She didn’t have to do that and could have just kept it but she was honest and even took time out of her day to bring it to us. She didn’t even want any money for going above and beyond. These people are genuinely great people and they have my business every time I come to visit. Thank you for being such amazing people in this world!!!

34  Crewed Luxury Yachts for Charter in Mexico

Mexico Yacht Charters

Ideal for year-round vacations, Mexico is an inspiring luxury charter yacht destination full of colour, culture and fantastic food. The expanse of coastline along the east and west coasts of Mexico offer a heady fusion of Spanish and Indian influences, ancient Aztec and Mayan civilisations and an abundance of beautiful beaches and world-class luxury resorts.

Mexico Luxury Yacht Charter Guide From the Caribbean Sea in the east to the Pacific Ocean in the west, a yacht charter vacation in Mexico offers everything from snow-capped mountains to fauna covered beaches. Sheltered by the extensive Gulf of Mexico, the Yucatan Peninsula in the east encompasses a similar climate to the Caribbean and is full of secluded coves and bays and white-sand beaches set against tropical forests.

In contrast, Mexico’s Baja Peninsula on the west coast offers desert plains, majestic mountains and spectacular beaches lapped by the waters of the Pacific to the west and the Sea of Cortéz to the east. Whether exploring the history and culture along with bustling cities and cosmopolitan nightlife ashore or delving beneath the waterline to discover breath-taking coral reefs and marine life, Mexico is a destination of choice for discerning world charterers.

Renting a Private Charter Yacht in Mexico For more information about renting a private luxury charter yacht in Mexico please contact your preferred Yacht Charter Broker, they can help you plan your perfect yachting vacation itinerary, combining your party's needs with recommendations about the best time to visit each area.

We recommend staying at least one night in Holbox, so you can go out to a bar to eat a very tasty dinner. A Holbox island yacht charter worths $3500 USD, 2 days, one night, a cheap one. The yachts and boats we offer that can go to the island are Uniesse 48, Sea Ray 43 and a Carver 60.

Don’t ever miss this experience!

My husband and I traveled with our (3) 20 something year old kids and my 79 year old mother. We rented the 40FT-CATAMARAN and was an amazing choice for our group. They were open to whatever we wanted to do, and we wanted to snorkel they took us to beautiful reefs, and we saw a little of everything turtles, sharks, and barracudas. Our crew Luis, Ricardo, and Donny were the best! They were so attentive and treated us like royalty. We had beer, wine, cocktails, and food galore, the ceviche was so fresh and delicious. Can’t wait to book them again when we return to Cozumel.

Everlasting memories

Best personalized experience ever at Deluxe Private Boats in Cozumel. If you want first-class treatment and don’t like cow herd tours, this company is highly recommended. Our captain Miguel was an expert at navigating the 40-foot Sea Ray. His first mate Jonathan was fantastic, keeping the glass full. They will customize your experience any way you like, from snorkeling to just parking the yacht on a beautiful sandbar where stingrays can be seen. The food was out of this world, excellent seafood. When in Cozumel, this will be the only company I book an excursion with in the future. Thank you, Adrian and team, for making everlasting memories for my family.

Deluxe – Sea Ray 40

Great outfit! I coordinated with Nelly prior to our trip, and she set everything up for us. We had the boat for 8 hours and spent some time snorkeling, on private beaches, and cruising. Then the crew took us to the shallow/calm area, blew up a huge sunning mat, and turned on the music. We had drinks and lunch there and just lounged and swam. The food was the best we had all week, fresh and beautiful presentation. Captain and crew were on point! Thanks for the great day!

Peter Brown

Five stars to Deluxe

A group of 7 of us went out for 8 hrs on the 40FT Sea Ray for snorkeling and beach cruise. This trip was by far the BEST boat trip we have been on, and we come to Cozumel a lot. The boat was meticulously maintained and absolutely beautiful. The crew was the most professional and accommodating and took amazing care of us. The food that the crew prepared for lunch was over-the-top delicious with a variety of selections and the presentation was superb. I can not say enough great things about this group. They even brought us logo Yeti cups to our house to take back with us. The absolute best experience we have had. I HIGHLY recommend DELUXE to anyone looking for the best in boating excursions.

We will definitely be boating with them in the future.

The Perfect Experience *****

It was the best experience ever! My family and I rented this amazing yacht and the crew Miguel and Jonathan were absolutely impeccable with us. The food was exquisite and the drinks that Johnathan made were on another level! I highly recommend this company if you want to have a good time free from hassles.

5 Star on every level

We took the 40-foot Sea Ray. The service was amazing. Miguel and Johnny were 5-star services. Great guides. They knew exactly where to go snorkeling and see most of the beautiful ocean. The food was probably some of the best we had all week. My family loved the experience. We look forward to returning.

Elephant Butte Lake visitor guide: when to visit, where to fish, camp and more

ELEPHANT BUTTE, N.M. — With a little imagination, the flat-topped butte protruding from the dammed waters of the Rio Grande in Sierra County, is said to resemble an elephant.  

Resemblant or not, Elephant Butte is iconic, the namesake of a town, dam and lake — "the largest body of water within 500 miles," said Chris Bolen, the superintendent of Elephant Butte State Park. 

Two hours from both El Paso and Albuquerque, the state park offers year-round boating, swimming, fishing, hunting, hiking and more to outdoor enthusiasts. But increasingly hot and dry summers are posing challenges that officials at the state park and dam are learning to deal with.  

Here's everything you need to know about visiting Elephant Butte Lake — from where to rent a pontoon boat and where you can camp to when water levels will be the highest. 

When is the best time of year to visit Elephant Butte? 

Elephant Butte Lake is north of Truth or Consequences, just off Interstate 25. It is easily accessible from both El Paso and Albuquerque but draws visitors from all over the region and world. 

The day-use fee is $5, and an annual day-use pass is $40 for all New Mexico state parks.  

On weekends, especially during the summer peak season, the park is packed with visitors. Boat rentals and campsites may be sold out.  

Labor Day weekend in 2023, the park hosted 26,019 visitors. On other holiday weekends like Memorial Day and July 4, visitors have historically reached 100,000 on each day. Yearly visitation has at times reached one million, Bolen added.  

Regulars like John and Shelley Davis from Rio Rancho have been coming for most of their lives and know to come on weekdays to avoid crowds. 

"Today, they have the lake basically to themselves," said Bolen, watching the couple smoothly launch a pontoon boat into the lake on the Wednesday after Labor Day. "They can get out there and probably not see another boat." 

Elephant Butte water level 

Much of the activity at Elephant Butte State Park, including boating, where you can drive and which marinas are operational, depends on the lake's water levels.  

"Everybody says, 'What's the lake level?' It's always relative, every time you see it," Bolen explained. 

The lake is manmade by a dam across the Rio Grande, completed in 1916. The Bureau of Reclamation uses it to regulate water dispersal for irrigation.  

To counteract dry summer months, the dam releases certain amounts of water between May and October. The water then enters Caballo Lake — another dam-formed lake and state park 18 miles south of Elephant Butte — and is then directed for irrigation in New Mexico. 

The Rio Grande is fed by snowmelt at its source in the Rocky Mountains and rainfall from the summer monsoon season. But with drier summers, delayed monsoons and intense heat, lake levels are scraping lower and lower. 

During summer 2022, water levels in the lake reached 3% capacity — the lowest Bolen had ever seen in his 24-year career at Elephant Butte. "But a really great monsoon season and a really great run-off" helped bring the lake back to more manageable levels, Bolen said.  

As of May 23, water levels were hovering around 23% full. Exactly one year before, it was around 26%. 

Water data in the Elephant Butte Lake is publicly available online . 

Within the state park, "we have to plan for the water level," he continued, indicating a chart hanging on his wall with predictions of water release rates, river flow and lake levels from the Bureau of Reclamation. "We have to make sure our buoys are in place, the ramps are good to go and we can move our docks up and down," Bolen said.  

Driving through the park, Bolen pointed out many signs of historic high-water levels, like the white bathtub ring around the lakeshore, mesquite trees among smaller desert shrubs and one-time waterfront houses that have since become just beachfront property. 

There is also evidence of past low-water events, like a paved road now crumbling into the lake. "They thought the water was going to be low for so long, they built some roads," Bolen explained.  

"It gets interesting when it rains hard," Bolen said. Lake levels rise dramatically, roads wash out and sand, silt and mud move freely. 

With that wisdom, Bolen now is intent on building manageable infrastructure like new bridges and culverts that won't be washed away by fluctuating water levels. "We don't want to build anything beneath the high-water mark, especially anything permanent," he said. 

All these calculations and preparations to keep the park running and accessible for hundreds of thousands amount to a daunting task. But for Bolen, "it's just part of the job." 

Camping at Elephant Butte

Campers have a wide array of options at Elephant Butte — and the unique freedom to park RVs as close to the water as possible.  

"Drive down here, find your little spot at the beach and go for it," Bolen said, driving past a pristine, empty stretch of lakefront beach. 

There are also more traditional campsites that range in price from $8-18 a night.  

While some sites have plug-ins and hook-ups for RVs, providing electricity and water (but no sewer service), sites without electricity still offer much. At sheltered sites along Ridge Road, overlooking the lake from the west, "you get your shade, you get your picnic table, you get your fire ring and you get a heck of a view in the morning. 

Sites can be booked through reserveamerica.com . 

Can you visit Elephant Butte in the winter? 

There is no off-season at Elephant Butte. "We just call it the slow season, and that's the wintertime," Bolen said. "The water temperature goes down, and the fish aren't as active."  

But winter at Elephant Butte appeals to a different type of visitor. Birders come out to see migratory waterfowl — bald eagles, white pelicans from the Great Lakes, ducks and Canadian geese — that move to New Mexico for the winter. 

Elephant Butte also has snowbirds of a different feather — retirees and campers from out of state who spend their winters happily in the warmth of the desert. Some services in the park and nearby towns may be closed or operate with limited capacity in the winter.

Marinas at Elephant Butte 

Boaters can store their boats at two marinas on Elephant Butte Lake, both operated by private concessioners.  

The Dam Site Marina is the largest and southernmost marina on the lake, in part of the lake owned and operated by the Bureau of Reclamation. It is managed by the Dam Site Historic District.  

Marina Del Sur is centrally located by the main entrance to the state park. 

Sports Adventure , a marina at Long Point, is closed indefinitely due to low water levels in the lake. After historically low lake levels last year, "this year they couldn't afford to … get it up and running without some certainty if the water is going to be there," Bolen said. 

Both functional marinas offer covered and uncovered slips of varying sizes, as well as jet ski ports. 

Boat rentals at Elephant Butte 

If you don't own a boat, rentals at Elephant Butte State Park are available at the two open marinas, at select other locations across the park and in nearby Truth or Consequences. 

You must be 21 with a valid driver's license to rent a motorboat, although kayaks and stand-up paddleboards are also available. 

 Boat rentals of all kinds are extremely popular. "It's not unusual for us to sell out on the weekends," said Bolen. 

The Dam Site Marina has house-boat slips, regular boat slips, a store and kayak and stand-up paddleboard rentals.  

Marina Del Sur has boat slips and also offers a fleet of pontoon boats and kayaks for rental. The baseline option at Marina Del Sur is $300 for a 12-person pontoon boat for a minimum of 3 hours on the lake. 

Within the park, a concessioner also operates a jet ski rental at Hot Springs Landing. 

Boating rules in Elephant Butte Lake

"Boats break down. It's just inevitable," Bolen said. "If your boat hasn't broken down, you haven't been doing it long enough."  

Park rangers are on alert to help rescue boaters and tow boats to shore. But the burden also falls on the boater to be prepared.  

"Anyone born after Jan. 1, 1989, must complete a New Mexico-approved boater education class in order to operate a power boat in New Mexico," Bolen said. "Those are offered free of charge at any of our lake parks, also in Albuquerque and online." (Those born before Jan. 1, 1989, are grandfathered in and are not required to take the boater education class.) 

Elephant Butte State Park offers free boating safety courses one Saturday each month at the Richard Cooper Boat Safety Training Center near the main entrance gate on Highway 195. "It's like a driver's-ed class for boats," Bolen said.  

Boaters who are renting from one of the park's marinas are exempt from these in-depth, eight-hour courses. "The marina is going to give you a quick, down and dirty safety course, give you information on boating safety and then turn you loose," Bolen added. 

Vessels are also inspected for aquatic invasive species upon entrance to the park. If a boat has standing water from another lake or species like zebra mussels growing on it, park staff will treat the boat to reduce the risk of speaking invasive species. 

Facts about Elephant Butte fishing and hunting 

Aboard your boat or standing on the shore, fishing is allowed anywhere on the lake except the marinas and the boat docks with a New Mexico fishing license, which can be purchased online or in person.  

Fishers can eat what they catch and cook their catches on the grills at campsites. There are no health concerns about fish from the lake, Bolen said. 

Elephant Butte Lake boasts the New Mexico state record for green sunfish, striped bass and longear sunfish.  

Beyond record breakers, the lake is rife with many types of fish , including "black, white, and striped bass, as well as crappie and bluegill." 

"I've seen kids, just dinking around, pull in beautiful black bass that some of these tournament fishermen would give their left knee for," Bolen said. 

The portions of the park where hunting is allowed vary by year, but the northern and easternmost edges of the lake and shore typically compose the designated hunting area. With a valid state license , hunters can pursue mule deer and waterfowl like ducks. 

How to swim and hike in Elephant Butte State Park 

"We do not have a designated swimming area," said Bolen. "You can swim anywhere at your own risk."  

For hiking, the park hosts a 20-mile West Lakeshore Trail from the city limits of Elephant Butte to the Monticello campground along the northern shore of the lake. A map of the trail, which features benches, signposts and some steep sections, is available on the state park website . 

Bolen noted that this stretch will hopefully one day link with the Rio Grande Trail , a proposed trail along the length of the river, from Colorado through all of New Mexico, ending in El Paso.
