The water, sunshine, and wildlife will strengthen your emotional immune system as we all maneuver the waves of COVID-19. And the best part – 100% of the kayak experience fee benefits Adaptive Sports Connection, an organization dedicated to improving the health and wellbeing for veterans, children, and adults with disabilities.
Our trained staff will be on-site to introduce everyone to the benefits of kayaking and provide instruction when needed.
