Overview:
Did you know that Columbia is home to one of the largest native populations of the Rocky Shoals Spider Lily- an endangered flower found primarily in the southeast? During May, only one month a year, these beautiful flowers bloom along the Broad and Lower Saluda River, creating a picturesque paddling trip. Join us on a leisurely paddling trip and interact with nature first hand as we float through the abundant flower clusters. You don’t want to miss this once a year experience; it will be gone before you know it.
For a limited time only, Palmetto Outdoors is selling these Spider Lily trips at a special discounted price. Purchase yours now, and schedule in the Spring when these beautiful flowers bloom.
