Colden “Cole” Watkins was born in Augusta, Georgia in 1988. As a kid, Cole, was very active; he loved playing basketball, baseball, guitar and the frequent trips to the lake and river. Cole graduated Greenbrier High School in 2007. He decided that his roots to his hometown were too deep to leave for college and enrolled into Augusta State University where he met his now wife, Ashley. In 2012, he graduated with a Bachelors in Business Management.
During Cole’s Junior year in college, he was aaigned a project that asked the undergrads to build a business from the ground up, that would survive in today’s economy. Cole decided to pick a topic that not only entertained people, but also involved something he loved. Thus, the Cole Watkins Kayak Tours business plan was born. Cole always felt the people of Augusta never took full advantage of the beautiful river sitting in our backyard. After receiving an “A” on the project and encouragement from his professors, Cole opened CWT on May 26, 2011.
CWT offers two options; Kayak Rentals & Guided Kayak Tours. CWT offers many routes along the Savannah river ranging from Lake Thurmond to Lake Olmested. CWT does most of their business at Betty’s Branch which is located at Riverside Park in Evans. The business is ran on the weekend year around and tailored to the customer’s wants and demands. No matter your age or experience, Cole is the guide for you. Many adults and children all get their start, kayaking with Cole!
Since opening up in 2011, CWT has proudly put over 2,500 smiling faces on the water! Here’s what some are saying about their experience:
