Description: Lincoln Beach is a public beach on the south end of Utah Lake, at the north end of West Mountain, N 40º 08.473' W 111º 48.170'. Access is through Benjamin, winding on farm roads towards the lake (See the Lincoln Point & West Mountain Auto Tour for directions). This area is being developed but currently does not charge for entry.  This is a popular area for shore birds, having a variety of species especially during migration. Snowy Plovers are known to nest on the rocky beach. ~ Robin Tuck
