New to Kayaking? This trip is intended for anyone who’s new to kayaking or NBCB.
You will learn how to choose and get fitted for a kayak, paddle, and life vest. We'll go through some on-land instruction, covering the basics and answering any questions before launching. You'll learn what goes into setting up before a trip and putting everything away afterward. Then, we’ll head out in our deck boats (no sprayskirts) and paddle together around the mouth of the creek.
This is a great, low-pressure setting to practice your paddling skills, build confidence, and enjoy being out on the water. Come meet fellow paddlers, learn something new, and get a feel for what NBCB is all about!
If you are interested in joining, please add yourself to the wait-list. You will be contacted if there's room on the trip.
Dress to get wet and remember to bring plenty of water and a snack. Please no jeans or other heavy cotton clothing.
Our trips sometimes have an active wait list - last minute cancellations or "no shows" could impact your ability to register for future trips. Please email the trip leaders if you can't make it.
