N until about 10 miles before SC state line. 17 exit is the closest. Go east towards the town of Hartwell. The old highway basically deadends on a penninsula giving you access to winds from most directions.
Southwest winds are good here, but west to northwest are excellent.
The rest of the year, the actual launching area is only open to windsurfers. Drive for about a mile and Dames Ferry park will be on your left. Thanks to club member Renee Jenkins. From I-20 take exit 61, turn left onto Hwy 221. You will pass through a small town called Appling, stay on 221.
