1. Boating. You are probably already aware of this option, but boating is a very popular and fun activity. Take the family out on the lake in your boat for the day to relax and enjoy the fresh air.
2. River rafting. Float in a tube down your local river. Always wear a life jacket and be sure to go when the river isn’t too high (like in early spring) or too fast. If you are taking small children with you, be sure to take them on a tube with an adult.
3. Canoeing. Taking a canoe out is also a fun water sport. Two or three people can paddle out and around your favorite lake, getting some exercise, while enjoying the beautiful scenery.
4. Fishing. If you don’t want to actually get out on the water, try fishing from the shore. You can find a quiet spot and cast your rod in for the catch of the day.
5. Water skiing. Another popular water sport is water skiing. Hook a tow rope up to the back of the boat and you can sail through the water on skis. Or, you could even hook a water tube up to the rope for some fun.
