When most people hear the words “Arizona” and “summer” in the same sentence, they probably just think of unbearable heat and being uncomfortable.  While temps in Arizona do get pretty high in the summer, there are lots of cool and fun activities that this beautiful state has to offer. According to  Planet Ware, there are 17 must see attractions in this beautiful state: The Grand Canyon, Sedona, Monument Valley, Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Phoenix, Hoover Dam, Jerome, Havasu Falls, Canyon de Chelly National Monument, Bisbee, Lake Mead, Tombstone, Petrified Forest National Park, Saguaro National Park, Antelope Canyon, Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument and Tumacacori National Historical Park.  All of these places are in different parts of the state and would allow someone to appreciate all the beauty Arizona has to offer.

Just in case you need a few indoor activities to help you cool down, here are a few experiences that offer some air-conditioning: Odysea Aquarium (in Scottsdale), Sea Life Arizona (in Tempe), Children’s Museum of Phoenix, Challenger Space Center (in Peoria), I.d.e.a. Museum (in Mesa), iFly Indoor Skydiving (in Scottsdale), Legoland Discovery Center (in Tempe) and Glow Putt Mini Golf (in Scottsdale)—yes, miniature golf indoors!  It doesn’t get any cooler than that.

You may not have considered coming to Arizona this summer, but hopefully after reading this post you’ll reconsider!  Dollar Self Storage has 11 self storage facilities in the Phoenix and Tucson area.  Our storage facilities are air conditioned, so while you might be breaking a sweat this summer, your belongings will stay nice and cool!
