Paddle Francis Marion!

There are several blackwater rivers located in the Francis Marion National Forest. (The Wambaw River is one of our guides’ favorite spots!) Join us on a kayak adventure to explore this beautiful area.  Your guide will choose the landing and river section best suited to the conditions of the day.

The river is a shady respite in the hot summer months and protected and warm during winter — we think it’s pretty close to perfect! The Francis Marion boasts numerous bird species among other wildlife you can spot as we kayak through it.

We meet in McClellanville and your guide will lead you to our departure point in the forest. No previous kayak experience is necessary to join this tour.  The experience is around 3 hours once you arrive at the landing.
