We recommend wearing comfortable clothing that you dont mind getting wet such as a bathing suit or athletic wear. We also recommend you bring sunscreen and water. Keep in mind there is a chance you might fall in the water so dont bring anything you are afraid to lose such as expensive sunglasses. We will store away any belongings you do not want to take with you.

When you arrive you will fill out a waiver form, if you haven't done it online already or signed before, and put your belongings away. We do require that leave with us either a piece of ID, credit card or car keys as collateral. You pay when you return so we will assign you a board, you walk it 20 seconds down to the water and away you go.

We do not require you to take a lesson in advance however we do encourage it especially if you are nervous your first time or if you would like to learn proper technique. If you don't take a lesson we will give you a very brief how to as well as safety instructions and where to go.

We will give you a very brief how to (where to stand, how to hold your paddle) as well as safety instructions and where to go. If you require more instruction we do offer lessons.

We have 6 single person kayaks and 1 tandem kayak in our fleet but no canoes. The cost is $20pp for the first hour and $5pp each additional half hour.

Rigid Paddleboards very rarely fit inside vehicles. They will have to go on top of your car or in a truck. Inflatable SUPS are about the size of an average suitcase and fit very nicely in the trunk or backseat.

Most of our paddleboards are either 10'6" or 11'6" long. We also have 3 12:6" boards available.

We do reserve the right to close, refuse rentals or cancel a lesson in inclement weather such as heavy rain, thunderstorms or high winds. You also may cancel your lesson with short notice if the weather is bad.

We generally say that first time paddlers have a 20% chance of falling in. You have a smaller chance if you pay attention to our safety demo :)

We do require you to leave behind ID or a credit card when you rent.

We accept Cash, Debit, Credit and Apple Pay or Google Pay.

We have boards that can support up to 275lbs.
