Wild marsh birds and occasional harbor seals may emerge in the quiet hour, adding to the serene backdrop.

The post-paddle treats serve as a fitting conclusion, encouraging conversation and reflection under the starlit sky. Whether it’s your first kayak or a moonlit tradition, Paddle Diva’s full moon events deliver an authentic, memorable outdoor experience that highlights the rhythms of nature and community spirit on Long Island’s shores.
