Cliff Jumping at Beaver Lake Dam in Eureka Springs, Arkansas

About this spot

This is the bluff area on the north side of Beaver Dam near Garfield, Arkansas, reached via Indian Creek Road and a campground before the dam crossing, as described. The submitted coordinates instead landed in a wooded residential cove about 8 miles south with no dam present; corrected coordinates place the pin at the actual shoreline bluff beside the dam's spillway works, confirmed by satellite imagery. Reported jump height is around 55 feet. Signage at the site posts "DANGER - NO JUMPING OR DIVING," and this is U.S. Army Corps of Engineers property where jumping is officially prohibited, though an established entry point reportedly persists despite the ban. Treat this as illegal and hazardous; water levels and rock exposure below the dam can change quickly with releases.

Safety first. Cliff jumping is inherently dangerous and can cause serious injury or death. Conditions — water depth, submerged hazards, and access — change constantly. CliffScout is community-sourced reference information, not a guarantee a spot is safe. Always assess the conditions yourself before jumping, and never jump where you're unsure. You assume all risk.
