Rescheduled 1st Sunday to the 2nd Sunday Paddle at Clam Pass Park

This is the same event intended for one week earlier, which was canceled due to bad weather. If you RSVP'd for the May 3 paddle, you will need to RSVP again for this event.

Please read this completely before you RSVP. By attending this event you acknowledge that you bear all responsibility for any outcome your participation brings. Neither I (Tom Long) nor any other member of PCPC holds any responsibility for your outcome, including mishaps, accidents or even death. See? That wasn't hard to read.

We'll launch at 9 AM, so be there by 8:30 to unload and prepare. Be sure to bring drinking water, bug repellent, sunscreen, and underarm deodorant. (Just in case.) We're paddling from the south end of Clam Bay up to the north end of Clam Bay, going through some wide open areas and some tight mangrove trails and tunnels. We'll visit a bird rookery and hope to see plenty of birdies. We'll probably take a side trip on the return route to the mouth of Clam Pass. You never know what kind of wildlife you'll see there.

After the paddle, many of us go to lunch at South Street (corner of Pine Ridge Rd and Goodlette-Frank Rd).

There is no launch fee to get your boat wet at Clam Pass Park, but there is a parking fee of $10 for anyone who does not have a Collier County Parks Pass sticker in their windshield. You pay through an app that you can access from a text number on the sign at the Park.

If you have any questions, please feel free to call me or text me on my cell: 239.963.6162.

See you May 10, 2026!
