Like a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, our Sweetwater Trip begins at the Mullica River Canoe Landing and ends at the beautiful Sweetwater Marina & Riverdeck. This 4 mile journey starts near the historic Batsto Village, on a narrow stretch of the Mullica River. Paddlers will wind their way alongside Pleasant Mills Road and the sleepy little town of Sweetwater, making their way towards the mouth of the river. There will be one sandy “beach” about 20 minutes into your trip that makes for a great place for a picnic or just to hang out. Guests of Jersey Devil Adventures will receive a 10% discount if dining at the Sweetwater Riverdeck (Open Wednesday - Sunday) after the trip!
