Marco Polo!
Whether the swan dive or the belly flop is more your style, you can cool off with a midday dunk in Jordan Lake State Recreation Area.
The state park in Apex is owned and maintained by the US Army Corps of Engineers and
offers three areas for swimmers to kick and splash.
The Ebenezer Church, Parker’s Creek and Seaforth areas have roped-off swimming sections and sandy beaches. They are open to all park visitors year-round.
During the summer months, the park and swimming areas are open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Be aware, though, no lifeguards are on duty; however there are life preservers on-site.
Entry into the park is $6 per car.
