Local vendors and food trucks gather here on Saturday mornings until about 1pm, sometimes later if there's enough of a crowd. Arepas and The Noodle Lady are two of my favorites but there's plenty more to explore and some great local artisans!

Go to the other side of the river for a nice paved walk and a better sunset view. Walk all the way to the lock and dam, or keep going for a more challenging jaunt. About 2 miles in you can take the river side path for a better view. Look out for wildlife - it's not uncommon to see river otters, deer, gators and more!

The Big Mo - Throwback gem of the a theater, about 30 min drive from West Columbia, this spot is fun for the whole family. With three screens they usually have something for every taste. Plus you get two movies for the price of one and the experience is worth it! They are only open seasonally so check their website for details.
Get there early because the line is usually down the road, especially for popular movies. Take a frisbee or football to toss around before the show starts and during intermission.
