PAGE & THE BORDER COUNTRY · GRAND CIRCLE · VISIT GUIDE
The Wave
The Wave needs a Coyote Buttes North permit and a dedicated wilderness day. The BLM describes a strenuous 6.4-mile round trip requiring navigation; a short source allowance is not a complete plan.

Choose the outing before committing the travel day.
Source time allowances exclude driving, parking, shuttle waits and the onward journey. Confirm admission and any permits separately.
Check the exact approach
A shoreline stop, kayak departure and remote Alstrom Point drive have different access requirements. Confirm the launch or road with the operator or land manager for the actual date.
Choose your experience
Leave room for the return
The saved location and time are curation data, not a navigation or access guarantee. Use the current land-manager directions and reserve a separate day where required.
Connect the right region
Page works for Horseshoe Bend and a booked Antelope Canyon tour. The Wave is a permit-dependent wilderness day west of town, and Big Water stays are across the Utah border.
Other choices in Page & the border country
These share a curation area. Compare their actual approaches before combining them.
Alstrom Point
Alstrom Point is a remote drive on the Utah side of Lake Powell. Confirm road conditions, vehicle suitability and daylight for the return before committing.
Antelope Canyon
Book the exact Antelope Canyon tour you want. A guided visit is required, and Upper and Lower canyon departures have different meeting points and physical demands.
Glen Canyon Dam
Glen Canyon Dam is a Page-area stop. Distinguish a viewpoint visit from any interior program, and check which facilities are operating for your date.
