Cost: $80 for rental; $60 if you are bringing your own kayak/SUP. This is a significant discount compared to their online rate of $120.

If you are bringing your own kayak or SUP you can drop it off at the marina gate and park across the street in the garage below or find street parking. https://littlemanparking.com/facilities/independence-garage/

**A touring kayak or SUP is strongly encouraged for this trip. If you plan on bringing your own SUP/ kayak, please contact Noel, Matthew, or Jeremy at Resilient for them to clear your gear. You can rent from them if unsure.**

Plan on arriving at the marina at 9:30AM in order to depart by 10:30AM. This trip is dependent on tide times. We will stop en route on the water, if possible on dry land, depending on timing; guide's discretion.

Rain Date: 7/20 one hour later due to tide times.

See you on the water!
