Adventure Tips
Dress in Layers
Even summer nights can be chilly near the water, so layering helps you stay comfortable throughout the paddle.
Bring a Headlamp or Small Flashlight
Though the moon illuminates the water, a headlamp helps for safety and navigation during embarkation and disembarkation.
Use Bug Spray
Mosquitoes are most active around dusk and night near water, so insect repellent will keep you comfortable.
