To Do: Edisto River Adventures

If you’re looking for a unique way to cool off and enjoy the outdoors this summer, Edisto River Adventures is a must-try. Located in nearby Ridgeville, SC, it’s the only outfitter offering tubing on the Edisto River—and it’s perfect for a day of laid-back family fun.

The experience is simple but memorable: you’ll float down a beautiful stretch of the Edisto, one of the longest free-flowing blackwater rivers in North America. The standard tubing trip takes about 2–3 hours, depending on water levels, and is suited for most ages (kids must be at least 5 and able to swim with a life jacket).

💦 What’s Included:

  • Durable river tubes with backrests and cupholders

  • Shuttle service to the launch point

  • Life jackets and a safety briefing before you float

  • Access to the Edisto Outpost with changing rooms, picnic tables, and beach access

The launch site is peaceful and shaded, and the outpost has space to relax, snack, and even play before or after your float. Some families pack a lunch or bring coolers (tube rentals available for those too!).

📍 Location: 153 Gator Walk Ridgeville, SC 29472
🕒 Open daily in summer | Reservations strongly encouraged
