Join us for the annual Altamaha River Canoe/Kayak Excursion to be held on Saturday, September 24, 2022. Bring the whole family and enjoy a leisurely 14 mile paddle down the mighty Altamaha River from Deens Landing to Easons Bluff Landing.
Named one of the 75 Last Great Places left in the world by the Nature Conservancy, the river flows past rich bottomland forests, cypress swamps, and tidal marshes. Inhabited by a broad range of animals including rare freshwater mussels, egrets, wild turkeys, white-tailed deer, turtles, and more! Crisp early mornings turn into sunny, warm, fall days making it the perfect time of year for one of our most popular river excursions.
Be sure to bring your canoes, kayaks, boats, jet skis, life jackets, sunscreen and drinks, and we will provide a hearty lunch at the end of the paddle.
