THE only NATURLIST-LED TOURS of LAKE JOCASSEE and the JOCASSEE GORGES.  THE DIFFERENCE IS KNOWLEDGE, LOVE OF PLACE, PASSION

OUR TOURS

Every tour of Lake Jocassee is uniquely special. We just never know what we're going to see! It could be Oconee bells blooming, or a bald eagle soaring overhead, or multitudes of butterflies puddling on a rock. Some things, though, we can count on. Do you like waterfalls? Lake Jocassee has waterfalls we can swim under! Do you favor wild mountain rivers? Pristine wilderness rivers flow into and provide the cold, pure water that makes Lake Jocassee. Enjoy fall’s color explosion, winter’s solitude and abundant waterfowl (starring the ethereal loon), and spring’s rebirth of nature. And of course, summer is for swimming and playing in the waterfalls! You’ll never know what to expect, and you’ll never be disappointed.

PRIVATE TOURS

Just you, your family and your friends. Have the boat, and the time, all to yourself.  Swim, hike, kayak, explore, or just sit back and enjoy a leisurely tour of America’s most beautiful lake. Private tours are available daily, year round. Sunset tours are a specialty. From 3 hours to all day, starting at $300. Our boats accommodate up to 14 people.

SENIOR TOURS

JOCASSEE LAKE TOURS offers special, shorter tours just for nature-loving seniors. Two hours in length, there is still plenty of time to visit some of Lake Jocassee’s most beautiful waterfalls and wild rivers.  Available daily, every month of the year, though we do recommend the fair weather months of April, May, September and October. All JLT tours are handicapped accessible. $30 per person, $250 minimum per boat for privately scheduled tours

OUR BOATS

Our pontoon boats are modern, safe and quiet.  Powered by clean-burning Yamaha 4 stroke outboard motors, they are whisper-quiet and environmentally friendly, and are equipped with half-canopies to protect from rain and summer sun.  Our boats accommodate up to 14 people, and we can accomodate a total of 40 people which is great for GROUP outings.
