IMPORTANT NOTES
- WE ARE NOW CLOSED FOR THE WINTER. SEE YOU BACK AT THE DOCKS IN MAY!
- Walk-ups are always welcome but we strongly suggest that you make advanced reservations, as we often sell out.
- Everyone paddling must sign an e-waiver prior to kayaking. Parents/guardians must sign a waiver for all minors. The link to sign the waiver can be found on your reservation confirmation email. Please sign this prior to arriving, as it will delay your kayaking and cut into your time on the water.
- Weight capacity for our kayaks is 425 lbs.
- Ages 3-4 are welcome in between two adults in a two-person kayak. It’ll be tight, so please make sure this will work for your party. Sorry, children under 3 are not permitted. Total weight capacity: 425 lbs.
- Ages 5+ are welcome in the front seat of a two-person kayak with one adult in the rear seat.
- Ages 12+ are welcome in a single or two-person kayak with an adult paddling in a separate kayak at the same time.
- Ages 18+ are welcome to paddle without an adult present.
- Your leashed dogs are welcome to join you on the kayak.
- Please arrive 15 minutes early so we can get you out on the water on time. Late arrivals will forfeit that time on the water, as our kayaks are usually booked for the following time slot.
- You must return to the launch site on time, or you will be charged for a FULL SECOND RENTAL. We are often sold out, so another customer will be waiting for your kayaks.
- Because we launch from a beach area, your feet will definitely get wet. You may also get wet while kayaking. Please dress appropriately!
- A life vest must be worn by all paddlers, at all times. We have them for everyone, but you may also bring your own, if you prefer. Our life vests are not waterproof.
- Providence Kayak is not responsible for any belongings that you bring with you, including cell phones and wallets. Please leave your valuables at home.
- If you choose to bring items with you on the kayaks, you do so at your own risk.
