Perfect for beginners, families, or anyone looking to connect with nature in a new way, this guided paddling tour takes you along the scenic Washington Park Lagoon to spot local birds up close.

Families will be seated together in canoes, while individuals can choose a kayak or canoe (canoe partners may be paired). We provide the boats, paddles, life jackets, and binoculars—just bring your curiosity and sense of adventure!

Paddling involves some upper body and core strength, bending, crouching, and gentle balancing—but the reward is seeing wildlife from a unique perspective. Glide across the lagoon, discover feathered friends, and make memories on the water!

Families are welcome and will be placed in canoes. Individuals can choose between a kayak or a canoe (which may require you to partner with another participant.) Paddling requires upper body strength & core strength, bending, crouching and unsteady motions are expected.
