Boating Safety Tip #5: Stay Safe While Kayaking! đź›¶
Kayaking is a fun and popular way to enjoy Lake Lanier! Whether you're paddling for exercise, exploring the shoreline, or just enjoying a peaceful afternoon on the lake, a little extra awareness goes a long way!
🦺 Wear your life jacket! Always wear a properly fitted, Coast Guard-approved PFD.
đź‘€ Be visible! Wear bright colors and consider reflective gear or a visible flag, especially when paddling in busy areas or low-light conditions.
🚤 Watch for larger vessels! Stay alert and never assume a powerboat sees you. Avoid blind spots and give larger boats plenty of space.
🌦️ Check the weather! Wind and storms can make kayaking challenging quickly. Know the forecast before you launch and head back to shore if conditions change.
📱 Bring a way to call for help! Keep your phone in a waterproof dry bag and consider carrying another reliable communication device.
đź›¶ If you capsize, stay with your kayak when possible. A kayak is much easier for other boaters and rescuers to spot than a person alone in the water.
Paddle smart, stay visible, and enjoy the beauty of Lake Lanier! đź’™ ...
