About
We're so excited to offer you our sit-on-top kayaks, which are super easy to use and provide excellent stability on the water. Whether you're a first-timer or an experienced kayaker, our staff is here to help you have a fantastic time! And with our sit-on-top design, you don't have to worry about climbing in and out of a cockpit – it's easy peasy. Additionally, we have tandem kayaks for a more team-based experience.
New this season: Hybrid SUP-Kayaks! These versatile boards can be paddled either standing up like a traditional stand-up paddleboard or seated like a kayak using an attachable seat and double-bladed paddle. Perfect for those who want a flexible, beginner-friendly way to explore the lake!
If you're looking for a relaxing way to enjoy the beautiful Canandaigua Lake, try our stand-up paddleboards (SUPs)! We'll help you find the perfect size board, kayak, or hybrid based on your height, weight, and experience level. And don't forget to bring a water bottle, sunscreen, and a smile!
Your health and safety are our top priorities, so we sanitize all equipment and surfaces regularly and provide hand sanitizer and wipes as needed. If you have any questions or concerns, give us a call – we're here for you!
