Situated on the grounds of beautiful Fort Worden State Park, participants of all paddling abilities will find something to suit them. Whether it is your first time in a kayak or as a seasoned paddler looking to upgrade your skill set in our newly offered advanced level instruction.

Friday evening will feature the Reel Paddling Film Festival sponsored by Adventure Kayak Magazine and Saturday we welcome Adventurer Jon Bowermaster as he takes us on an arm chair adventure into the wilds of Antarctica.

Join us with family and friends as we celebrate 25 years and get out on the water!!!
