Itinerary: | |||||||||
At about three and a quarter miles we will come to a public beach on Lake Lanier. We will take a long break there and we can wade into the water and swim. At this time of the year the water is very comfortable: cool and refreshing. There is a restroom there too for you to change in and out of your swimsuit if you would like to. There are picnic tables, so you can have lunch if you want.
