The views at the dam are nothing short of breath-taking. Kayaking is super popular here, and a perfect way to put yourself in the middle of all that natural splendor. You can also find several other types of boats for rent like yellow boats, pedalos, donut boats, and water bikes which can accommodate more than one passenger.
