To find some of the clearest water in Arkansas, you’ll need to travel through the scenic Ouachita Mountains and visit Lake Catherine State Park. The drive is excellent, the mountains are lovely, and Lake Catherine is an incredibly scenic spot for recreation, but your real destination is Falls Creek Falls. That’s because today we’re looking for the bluest water in Arkansas, and the water beneath Falls Creek Falls is some of the bluest water anywhere.

This spot is incredibly easy to hike to, as it’s only a few minutes from the shores of Lake Catherine.
