Details

The weather is supposed to be low 70s and sunny so come join All Things LA for a Saturday morning workout on the water. We'll rent kayaks (single or double) and explore the harbor in Belmont Shores. Depending on the size/level of the group we'll paddle around Alamitos Bay and/or through the canals surrounding Naples Island. Since it's a bay instead of the open ocean, the water is generally calm so a great spot for beginners. Kayaking is a great workout but requires no prior experience so everybody is welcome. Also it's within a couple blocks of the main street in Belmont Shores so there's lots of great places to get lunch/coffee/ice cream afterwards.

Basics:

  • Location: Kayaks on the Water (5411 E. Ocean Blvd, Long Beach, CA 90803)
  • Estimated Time: 1.5 hours (2 hours if we have 20+ people)

  • Pace: We'll go at a slow to moderate pace depending on the group, you're welcome to go ahead but nobody gets left behind
