Warrior Lake is a long river lake on the Black Warrior River in west Alabama, running about 77 miles from Tuscaloosa down to the Selden Lock and Dam near Eutaw. With roughly 8,000 acres of water and about 300 miles of shoreline, it has plenty of room for boating, fishing and exploring. Invert Sports offers Warrior Lake boat rentals, jet ski rentals, water toys and private boat charters, ready and waiting at the lake.
Warrior Lake Boat Rentals
Warrior Lake's long river reaches are great for tubing, skiing and wakeboarding, and calm mornings are perfect for wakesurfing. Our Warrior Lake boat rentals include:
- MasterCraft wakesurf and wakeboard boats for family and friends
- Ski boat rentals for water skiing, slalom and tubing
- Tubes, wakeboards and wakesurf boards for every age
- Paddle boards and water trampolines for a warm afternoon on the Black Warrior
Rather have someone else drive? Book a private boat charter and our captain will handle the boat. Damage waiver coverage is available on every rental.
Warrior Lake Jet Ski Rentals
Jet skiing on Warrior Lake means 77 miles of river, wooded bluffs and quiet creeks to explore. Most of our jet ski rentals can pull a tube, depending on the model, and guided rides are available. See our jet ski models to pick your ride.
Pontoons, Marinas and Boat Service
Public boat ramps line the lake at Mill Creek near Oliver Dam, Moundville, Foster's Ferry, Lock 7, Lock 8, Finches Ferry and Jennings Ferry, which also has a campground. We don't rent pontoons or service boats, but we offer surf boats, jet skis and water toys to go with your pontoon day or lake house stay.
Moundville Archaeological Park
Right on the river, Moundville Archaeological Park protects the mounds of a Mississippian city that was one of the largest in North America about 800 years ago. It is an easy stop by boat or car.
Fishing Warrior Lake
Warrior Lake holds bass, crappie, bream, catfish and hybrid striped bass, with creek mouths, wood cover and river ledges all along its length.
Tuscaloosa, Moundville and Eutaw
Tuscaloosa sits at the upper end of the lake, Moundville is about 20 minutes south of town, and Eutaw is near the lower end, so food, gas and lodging are never far away.
Getting to Warrior Lake
From Tuscaloosa, the upper end of the lake is right in town near Oliver Dam. Moundville is about 20 minutes south on Alabama Highway 69, and Eutaw is about 35 minutes southwest on I-20/59. See all of our Alabama lakes.
Good to Know Before You Go
- Alabama boating rules: Alabama requires a vessel license to drive any motorized boat or jet ski, and no one under 12 may drive one. Drivers 12 and 13 need a license and a licensed adult 21 or older on board, and visitors 14 and older from other states can boat up to 45 days a year without an Alabama license. Our rental drivers must be 18 or older.
- Life jackets: everyone on a jet ski and anyone being towed must wear a life jacket, and so should young children on a moving boat.
- Barges and locks: this is a working river, so give barges and towboats plenty of room, stay clear of the dam and lock areas, and watch for their wakes.
- Beat the heat: summer days are hot and humid, so bring plenty of water, shade and sunscreen.
- Book early: summer weekends and holidays fill up fast.
