| Consistently smooth water is what makes Lake Norfork a favorite
destination for skiers, wakeboarders, and tubers. Even on windy days you'll find smooth
water in the coves. What is the the best time of year to visit
Lake Norfork? It depends on what you like! The locals love to argue about when the
best weather is - late spring or early fall. The last two weeks of April and all of May
have clear, low humidity days in the 70's or low 80's. The trees have completely leafed
out by May. There are no crowds anywhere, though Norfork is seldom crowded. But there are
fewer boats on the water this time of year.
September and October present more great weather. Most of September
tends to be much like summer - warm, humid days, but nights do cool off. Foliage does not
begin until mid October, and when we experience a truly great foliage display it occurs in
the last few days of October and the first few days of November. September and October are
excellent fishing and nature activity months. In fact many people prefer to pursue these
activities in cooler weather. |
