*Special Service to Sunrise Cove Marina by appt only minimum 2 passengers.
*Loop is 22.5 miles long and takes about 2.25 hours per boat.
*Boats are approximately 1.25 hours apart at each stop.
*Each boat carries up to 10 people including the Captain but due to weight of people and coolers, may be less at times.
*If boarding at Two Mile Creek Boat Ramp, you must show proof of paid parking (picture of stub completely filled out) in addition to your boarding pass and be parked in a parking space designated for a single vehicle only, unless you have a boat trailer connected.
*Feel free to bring your paddle boards & coolers and make a day of it!

SAFETY INFORMATION
*By purchasing a boarding pass, you completely waive all rights to sue Lake Lanier Water Taxi, Captain, & Crew.
*You understand that you are making a choice to be on the water and even if you injure yourself due to something that occurs on the boat, you release all liability by purchasing a boarding pass.
*Stay seated until the Captain says you may go ashore.
*No smoking on the boat–at any time, of any kind.
*If going to an island hotspot, be prepared to exit the boat into the water because there are no docks and the beach is not always accessible.
*Be prepared to get wet at any time while traveling on the water taxi.
*Please remember the taxi runs at around 20mph, so staying seated at all times is not an option, including children.
*Children under 12 should bring their own fitted lifejacket due to severe differences in the average weight of a child that age.
