There are no Canoe and Kayak rentals at Bluff on a regular basis: You can bring your own canoe, kayak or motor boat. However, groups wanting to canoe or kayak can arrange with the Altamaha Coastal Tours for boats and shuttles.
From Beards Bluff to Darien on the coast is an 80 mile trip requiring 3 to 4 days ( three nights ) to complete. Most of the land on either side of the river is open to the public and there are generally great places to camp. Also, there are a two places to stop and refill water supplies.
