Wear water-resistant clothing
Even on calm days, splashes and sudden weather changes mean it’s best to dress in quick-drying, water-resistant gear.

Getting to the launch point a few minutes early helps you settle in and meet other paddlers before starting.
Use sunscreen and sunglasses
Protect yourself from UV rays reflected off the water, especially during midday trips.
Stay aware of weather conditions
Check the forecast before heading out—wind and rain can change water conditions rapidly.
Personal Flotation Device (PFD)
