Description:
Starting from the Rembert C. Dennis Landing, you will paddle south and pass under the SC 402 bridge. At various points you can leave Wadboo Creek to extend or cut short your paddle, or just explore various smaller waterways, which extend into the marshland and old rice fields. You may see an abundance of birds, especially wading birds, ducks, and osprey. Small alligators may also be encountered throughout this area. Fishing is good for large bluegills and redbreast.

Be aware of boat traffic in the Cooper River and Tailrace Canal.
