The Ocmulgee River
Enjoy the bubbling Ocmulgee River on a kayak, sitting in a canoe, or floating on a tube.
See a unique view of Macon from the river as it winds through town with up-close sights of our upland forests and local wildlife. Paddle-board, canoe or kayak your way downstream with local businesses that offer river guides, equipment rental and even, stay options along the river banks. We recommend checking water levels before you embark and ALWAYS wear a life vest!
