About This Trip

Trying to beat the southern heat? What better way to spend a sweltering afternoon than renting flat water kayak and enjoying a relaxing float down the Chattahoochee River.

Trip Highlights:

  • Relax on the river
  • Beat the heat!
  • Kayak, Double Blade Paddle, and a Personal flotation device (PFD) provided

 

Our flatwater kayaks are a great way to find your favorite fishing spot or explore the Chattahoochee River! Our 2-hour rental allows for plenty of time to explore or float down our one mile stretch of flat water. Typically available on weekends — weather permitting — we rent kayaks from our island located at 1200 bay Ave. Our only requirement is that each participant fit into one of the provided PFDs. Rentals are available on a first-come-first-serve basis.  Rentals can be returned directly to the island or at our take-out, located directly behind the Columbus Iron Works Convention center.
