Adventure Tips

Wear sun protection

Even on cloudy days, UV rays reflect off the water, so bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat.

Dock and shoreline areas can be rocky; water shoes protect your feet when launching and landing.

Start on calm water

Beginners should launch near the shore where the water is smoothest to build confidence.

Check weather conditions

Avoid paddleboarding during high winds or storms for safety and comfort.
