About Swasey's Beach Campground
Overview The Swaseys Beach campground and day use area allow for camping and picnicking opportunities on the Green River across from Swaseys Boat Ramp. The beach and many campsites are shaded with large cottonwoods. Both areas are often full on summer weekends with recreationists floating the Green River Daily, swimming, enjoying the beach, and camping. Recreation Thousands of visitors float the Green River Daily each year, putting in at Nefertiti Boat Ramp eight miles north of Swaseys Beach. Many more day users find relaxation on the beach, picnicking, fishing, and swimming during the warm summer months. While BLM rangers maintain the campground and patrol the river, there are no lifeguards, and visitors are responsible for their safety. Campfires are only allowed in fire rings. Please do not build fires on the beach. Facilities • Accessible vault toilets • Picnic tables • Campfire rings • Boat ramp Natural Features This recreation site is located beside Swaseys Rapid near the takeout for river runners floating the Green River Daily and Desolation-Gray canyons. It is framed by steep canyon walls, and cottonwoods provide a reprieve from summer heat. Hastings Road continues north paralleling the river, providing a scenic drive through the canyon and opportunities to appreciate the lush riparian ecosystem, rock art, sounds of the Green River, and outstanding canyon scenery including views of Desolation Canyon Wilderness across the river.
