Are alligators around? Was planning on floating instead of paddleboarding through the park.

The alligators stay active until the temps stay at our below 60°F. They can't digest food when it gets that cold. They are in the area. I would recommend the saluda river from the zoo to gervais street.

Not that I have known of, but in South Carolina the possibility does exist.

Ecola Is in effect there currently

I agree with Jason. But you could call and double-check with the rangers.

I've seen alligator snapping turtles in the river, but never an alligator. I might advise at least using floats with sealed bottoms.

When I have been there, we didn't see Alligators, but we did see quite a few Turtle's. That being said, Don't mean there are not any! Good luck on your float trip.

Plenty in the Congaree River. Occasionally get up Cedar Creek.
