Looking for things to do at night near Lake Lanier or a unique outdoor night activity in Buford, GA? Glow Up Paddle Night is one of the most unforgettable experiences on the water. After sunset, we transform paddleboards and kayaks with vibrant LED lighting, creating a floating glow show across the calm waters of Lake Lanier.

This experience is perfect for date nights, friend groups, visitors staying at Margaritaville Lanier Islands, or anyone near the Lake Lanier area. We're in Buford close to Cumming, Sugar Hill, Gainesville and only 45 minutes from Midtown Atlanta.

Glow Up Paddle Night is a guided nighttime paddle experience featuring LED-lit paddleboards and kayaks. Once the sun goes down, the water comes alive with color as you glide across the lake under the stars. The glowing boards and boats illuminate the water below, making this both relaxing and Instagram-worthy.
