Visitors love Island Park for its world-class fishing and outstanding scenery and wildlife viewing opportunities. The Island Park area is prized for its fishing; the Henry's Fork is known as one of the nation's best fly-fishing streams.

Anglers cast for rainbow, cutthroat and brook trout and Kokanee salmon. Island Park Reservoir offers boating, water skiing and excellent fishing opportunities.

The reservoir is used for irrigation so the water level recedes throughout the summer, but is generally useable all season. Henry's Lake is nearby.
