Kayak Tour of Stallings Island

Sunday, June 04, 2023  •  10 AM - 12:30 PM
Savannah Rapids Park
This Tour starts at 10;00AM EST. Join us for guided group tour to Stallings Island!
After a quick safety instruction. we will hop in our kayaks for a quick customer introduction and start to weave in and out of the islands until getting to Stallings Island to search for the wild donkeys and goats! No one is allowed on this island but we are able to feed the animals healthy snacks from the bank. We will also make a pitstop on a small sandy island for some pictures and a quick swim for anyone who is interested. We then paddle up to the Stevens Creek Dam for an up-close look at this over 100 year old dam as the cool water mists down it. We then make our way along the dam searching for turtles and resident gar! We do have the option to paddle around the "hissing trees"; two SC cypress trees that often have snake activity. Not to worry, these snakes are very lethargic and just sunbathing. 90% of the time, they are water snakes which are non venomous. Anyone who is not interested in the "Nope Rope" sightings can hang back with one of the guides.
This tour will last roughly 2.5 hours. Guests must have a little paddle experience and be comfortable with their paddling abilities and also around water.
*RESERVATIONS REQUIRED* Call 706-840-0433 or at http://www.colewatkinstours.com/contact-us/.
Guided Tour: $50pp

Sunday, June 04, 2023  •  3:30 PM - 6 PM
Savannah Rapids Park

Guided River Paddles happen every other Sunday and rotate with the Stalling’s Island Paddle on Sundays. A little bit of kayaking experience is necessary for the river since it is down the stretch with some smaller rapids and because of the rocks and rapids we only allow single kayaks for this tour since our tandem kayaks sit a little lower and have a harder time making it through! Meet at our location at 3:30 for the paddle Reservations required- visit https://kayakaugustacanal.com/special-events/

Outdoor Augusta Adventure Camp

Monday, June 05, 2023  •  9 AM - 4 PM
Betty's Branch

An active camp for young outdoor enthusiasts.

Each camper will have the opportunity to become familiar with kayaking, canoeing and paddle boarding.

NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY!

Oa Riverside camp adventure leaders will provide basic paddling instruction, safety and knowledge of boating. As well, campers will learn about the Savannah River including the habitat and animals that surround our greatest local natural resource!

After morning paddle excursions, campers will have lunch and hammock time at Riverside Park followed by games, crafts and outdoor fun! Campers will also participate in river clean up challenges.

B.Y.O.L (bring your own lunch)

Each camper is reonsible for bringing their own lunch. Oa Riverside will provide an afternoon snack each day, water coolers for refill, and a pizza party the last day of camp.

In the past we have done a camp that was only at Riverside Park as well as a Serene 18 Week that included all the water trails in our area, utilizing our bus to transport us and the kayaks. We are now going to limit the weeks and only do the Serene 18 style camp. Those weeks proved to be the most fun, as well as the best for learning about the geography of the CSRA and the best opportunity for learning to paddle.  In addition, there will be days of the week where we will visit local museums that have to do with our waterways.

This year we will also be hosting a youth kayaking trip that paddles from Savannah Rapids down to North Augusta Boat Ramp. Separate from Summer Camp, this trip will take place on the Savannah River and be done in one day. Mild rapids are involved with this trip and paddling experience is required.  This experience is called River Daze. Last year we made this first accent on the last week of camp and it was major fun.
