Lakes & Rivers

In the south, there’s nothing like heading to the water on a hot day.  And lucky for us, we’ve got plenty of water to choose from. Clarks Hill Lake offers some of the best bass fishing around. Kayak rentals at Savannah Rapids Pavilion make it easy to spend an afternoon paddling from the Augusta Canal into Lake Olmstead. If you’d prefer a guide, Cole Watkins Tours offers kayak rentals and tours of many of the region’s waterways - Betty’s Branch is a local favorite. Or you could take it easy on a cruise down the Savannah River with Patriot Boat Tours.
