About
You will never see Miami like this! We will be meeting up just outside of downtown Miami, having a brief meet and greet then, stand up paddle boarding or kayaking right through the middle of downtown Miami on the Miami River. We will be checking out all the lights and the sights from the water while paddling around taking some photos and ending with a couple drinks. ( I'll bring some beer, hard seltzers and other drinks 100% complimentary for everyone.) Other things to note: Please bring a camera if it is waterproof or has water housing. Please keep in mind this is a water adventure and you could get wet. Don't worry if you can't swim, life jackets are provided.
Note: Children who sit on your lap are free!

What to bring
You should be ideally dressed in a bathing suit because you will get wet no matter how careful you are. If you do not want to get tan lines, it is better to wear a long-sleeved shirt underneath your swimsuit. We will also suggest you wear a hat so that you don't feel the heat of the sun when we get into the middle of the ocean. Sunscreen with an SPF of a minimum of 30 is recommended to protect your face and body from tan lines and heat rashes. We will suggest you wear your comfy aqua shoes during the tour, and if you don't have them, you can wear your sports sandals. If you are coming to Miami during winter, you should carry a windbreaker and a sweater to beat the chilly breeze of the ocean.
