| Itinerary: |
Afternoon on the water.
Come out for an easy going, exploratory paddle from Deep
Cove out in the waters of Indian Arm.
We'll decide as a group where to go, and how long we want
to be out. This will depend on the strength of the weakest
paddler, the weather, and the energy of the group participating.
Novice paddlers are welcome, however you must have
paddled a kayak in the past to join us because there is no
lesson, and no certified trainers to get beginners started. If
you are not comfortable on the water, this is not the event for
you, and you should look to take a quick-start course with a
certified instructor prior to coming out.
Kayaks can be rented at Deep Cove Kayak and Canoe, or
MEC, or bring your own.
