Summer activity ideas🌸
I went tubbing for the 1st time in Asheville North Carolina. U can rent tubes online for 30$ for kids & adults. They also have White water Rafting & Kayaking on website to book as well. The float trip down the lake feels like a lazy river & will take 2hrs & 40mins. They have limited parking on sight so 1st come 1st serve kinda of deal. There’s a small shop u can rent tubes for coolers & they can hold personal items so u won’t loose them on water. You will meet with a group of ppl who reserved same time as u for trip & they provide PDF for kids & adults. There are shuttle buses that pass by often to pick u & drop u off to top of lake where ur cars are parked. They have hand paddles that can help u steer yourself from branches & rocks u may come across. Some parts of the lake gets deep & certain areas your able to stand next to your tubes. If u decide to come off tube for a swim sessh, make sure u have some1 help u get back on as it will be difficult to hop back on in deeper water😓
Some things to keep in mind:
- Don’t forget to bring a cooler with drinks. It will get extremely hot! as there is no shade to hide under & bring snacks too
- Sunblock is a MUST! because u will get burnt!
- Bring your speakers for good vibes & u can bring
drinks/smokes as long as staff don’t see them. They don’t check unless u have them expose ofc.
& Last, make sure u bring a nice crew that can help make the slow trip down the river fun & exciting because if not you’ll find yourselves bored at some point lol like the crowd I came with. I tried to open conversations but they seem shut down & ready for the trip to end 🫠
Over all it was a lovely experience & my son enjoyed it as much as I did & that’s all that mattered to me💙

Summer is the perfect time to enjoy outdoor activities that provide both fun and relaxation. Tubing is one of the most popular summer activities, especially for families looking to unwind while staying active. Asheville, North Carolina, offers beautiful waterways ideal for tubing, where you can float down scenic rivers, meet new people, and create lasting memories. When planning your tubing trip, consider the essentials: a cooler filled with drinks to stay hydrated under the sun, snacks to keep your energy up, and sunblock to protect your skin from UV rays. Having the right equipment, like hand paddles, can help you navigate obstacles, such as branches or rocks, while floating down the river. For those new to tubing, it’s a great idea to go with friends to enhance the experience. Shared laughter and stories will make the slow drift down the river even more entertaining. Before you head out, be sure to research the local tubing websites and book in advance, as popular places tend to fill up quickly during the summer months. As you enjoy this relaxing river experience, remember to follow safety guidelines and always stay aware of your surroundings. Whether you want action-packed water adventures like white water rafting or a calm day on a lazy river, tubing can fit the bill for your perfect summer outing!
