    FAQs

    No. Launch times are 11:45, 12:15, and 12:45, and pickup is typically about 1.5 hours before launch.

    Choose a single or tandem (two-person) kayak.

    Bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen. Wear proper footwear for rocky beaches (water shoes or strapped sandals work well; avoid flip-flops). You’ll get your feet wet getting in and out of the kayaks, and you may want a bathing suit for swimming. In cooler weather, dress in layers and choose quick-drying bottoms (avoid jeans).
