This lower part of the Altamaha River is important to the seafood industry as well as being of ecological importance as an estuary. This adventure takes advantage of some of the smaller creeks and streams that branch off of the mighty Altamaha. Stud Horse Creek is lined by thick, jungle-like vegetation and is home to large numbers of alligators, as well as various water bird species. A shortcut is available through Rifle Cut, a slave built canal, which joins with the Darien River.
