About This Access Site
Little Hell Boat Landing, located southwest of Millett in Allendale County at the end of CR 368 (Little Hell Road), provides access to the Savannah River and Swift Gut. The facility features a single-lane boat ramp and gravel parking area with capacity for approximately 10 vehicles, along with a large artisan well. Given its modest infrastructure, this access point is best suited for smaller watercraft and paddlers comfortable with basic facilities.
The Savannah River at this location is a major waterway (8th order stream) with substantial flow averaging over 12,800 cubic feet per second. Paddlers should be prepared for a river with moderate current (average velocity of 6.89 feet/second) and a gentle gradient of 2.2 feet/mile. This is a tidal section of the river approximately 293 miles from the Atlantic Ocean, so water levels and conditions can be influenced by tidal fluctuations. The location provides access to both the main Savannah River channel and the adjacent Swift Gut area, offering options for exploration.
