The St. Anthony Sandbar is located on the Henry's Fork of the Snake River. It has a shallow, bordered swimming area for novice or non-swimmers, and a diving board and floating platform area for better swimmers.

The park has sandboxes on the sides of the steps down to the water and a small water slide which ends in the novice swimming area.

Swim at your own risk. The Sandbar is a popular place. No dogs are allowed in the park.

Take precautions when swimming in rivers with fast currents like this one.

The diving board is safe as long as you:

1. Don't use it when the river is running high, fast and cold.
2. Jump or dive off the front, not to the sides. There are huge rocks to the sides. Stick to the front to avoid getting hurt.

Don't swim in the "safe area" if the buoys aren't up. It is not safe until the City of St. Anthony puts them up.
