Paddle for Pints (Ventura | Bright Spark Brewing)

We're teaming up with our friends at Bright Spark Brewing for our favorite kind of paddle sesh: the kind that ends with pints! We'll meet at the Ventura Harbor Launch Ramp (see map) and cruise the harbor/keys for about an hour. From there, we'll pack up our gear and drive over to Bright Spark (4561 Market St, Ventura, CA 93003) for the après-paddle, featuring pints, pizza, and good vibes.

A few notes:

• 🛶 PADDLE: Stand-up paddleboards (SUPs), kayaks, canoes, and the like are all welcome. When in doubt, go for it.
• ⏰ TIMING: We'll plan to push off no later than 10:15 AM. If you're late to the rally point and miss us, we'll catch you on the water as we can't afford to wait for stragglers.
• 🚗 PARKING: There is plenty of public parking at the boat launch.
• ➡️ FORMAT: We typically paddle for about an hour, deflate/load our gear in our cars, and then reconvene for some hangs. Shortcuts are welcome and no worries if you have to cut out after the paddle.
• 💡EXPERIENCE: We recommend some experience as we do not have resources available to teach. If you're a beginner, we recommend bringing a buddy to stick with you.
• 🛟 RENTALS: We're not affiliated with the rental companies but encourage you to research options on your own.
