Tips for a great day on Lake Seminole
- Mornings are calmest for surfing.
- Georgia requires an observer besides the driver when towing, and no towing or wakesurfing between sunset and sunrise.
- Georgia's 100-foot law means idle speed near docks, swimmers and shorelines.
Georgia boating rules to know
- Every boat needs a wearable life jacket for each person on board. Children under 13 must wear one whenever the boat is moving, unless they're inside an enclosed cabin, and everyone on a jet ski must wear one.
- Towing a skier, wakeboarder or tuber requires an observer besides the driver, and the person being towed must wear a life jacket. Towing, wakeboarding and wakesurfing aren't allowed between sunset and sunrise.
- Jet skis can't be operated between sunset and sunrise.
- Georgia's 100-foot law: keep to idle speed within 100 feet of docks, piers, bridges, anchored or drifting boats, people in the water and shorelines next to homes, parks, beaches and marinas.
- Stumps and grass beds sit just under the surface outside the marked channels, so stay in the main channels at speed.
- Part of Lake Seminole is in Florida, so Florida boating rules apply across the state line.
