★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 108 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $134

Drive a UTV across Coral Pink Sand Dunes during golden hour, stop for sunset views, then head to an overlook for s’mores and stargazing. Guides such as Josh, Brad, Troy, and Drew are known for safety and good local stories. Sandboarding may also be part of the fun, weather permitting.

“Troy hosted us for our Coral Pink Sands experience and was a tremendous guide. My ten-year-old son was immediately at ease; he and Troy engaged like old buddies. The pink sands themselves are gorgeous. It was unseasonably cold, and a blizzard kept us from doing the campfire, but we were sent home with s'more fixings. I got to romp in the ATV, which was a thrill. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a great guide to view the poetic landscapes of southern Utah.”
