This is a great park where you possibly see Prong Horn Antelope, coyote, deer and buffalo. And I imagine other animals. I will tell you the ride into the park can be smelly from the great salt lake. … Full review by Connie E

There is no indication ATVs are allowed on the island. There was a 2017 proposal to consider it but they do not currently appear to be allowed according to the park website. No indications ATVs were active on the island when we were there either.
There is a dirt road shown on google earth call Antelope Island Road. Is this public access. What about the gravel pit road. I am looking to get to the West side and I can not hike or bike.

The park rangers can prob answer your question better. Give them a call. They were very helpful.
I have always wanted to go to the Great Salt Lake. However, is it possible for one to swim in the Great Salt Lake in the middle of June via the normal water temperature and the normal air temperature? Is it clean enough for one to swim, and does one actually float in the Great Salt Lake? How much time would you recommend for one to spend at Antelope Island State Park? Thanks!

Plan at least a half day at the park with two hours to swim. Yes you actually float and can swim near the boat docks or on the west side of the lake. However, June is a bit early for …
Plan at least a half day at the park with two hours to swim. Yes you actually float and can swim near the boat docks or on the west side of the lake. However, June is a bit early for swimming since the water will be very cold. The snow run-off doesn't finish until the end of June. Also in late June you get the first hatches of the black fly which bites and makes being outside impossible. But a better attraction in June is to go see the Buffalo calves. The cows go to the mountains to calve and then come down near the Garr Ranch to feed. So if you want to stand the cold water go for it, but call the park to check and see if the black flies have hatched. if so forget it.
