You can rent a canoe or kayak and paddle the calm waters of the Brazos River south of the dam. On your way down the river, stop to swim, enjoy a picnic, watch for wildlife along the shores, and enjoy the surrounding views.
Families can have fun swimming off their boats, or pulling the kids on inflatables. Sailing is popular, too, especially around the dam.
Personal watercraft are a great way to spend
a few hours touring the lake with friends.
Pontoon boats are popular for large groups wanting to cruise the lake for the day. For those looking for more speed, powerboats of all kinds can be found on Lake Whitney. Airboat trips down the Brazos River are popular with both tourists and residents.
You'll see everything from paddleboats to houseboats on the lake. No matter what style of boating appeals to you, it's all here at Lake Whitney!
