With 1150 miles of shoreline, this 54,000 acre lake in the middle of Missouri is one of the most popular boating hot spots in the world. At nearly 100 miles long and with an average depth of 130 feet, the lake is perfect for any type of boating, although the terrain around the lake can reduce the winds, and powerboats are the most popular type.
More than just a lake, the entire Lake of the Ozarks area is a vacation destination for boaters and landlubbers alike. However, the lake offers boaters an endless variety of beautiful beaches, natural coves, boat and home rentals, and water sports of every kind.
Although the weather at Lake of the Ozarks is generally mild year-round, it does cool down in the winter months. Winter lows can drop into the 40s, making Spring to Fall the best times to visit.

Pontoon and deck boats are common options for general cruising and exploring, sunset cruises, snorkeling, wakeboarding, and exploring the coastline. Bass boats and small aluminum fishing boats are also very popular since the lake offers anglers some great opportunities.
Unlike coastal destinations, boat sizes are generally limited to smaller cruisers and day boats, while ski boats, bowriders, and runabouts are also a common sight. The type of boat you choose for a day on Lake of the Ozarks really depends on the activities you have in mind.
