Description

Seacoast Paddleboard Club is hosting its next Destination Paddle at Salisbury Beach State Park in Salisbury Beach, Massachusetts. We will meet in the parking lot at Salisbury Beach State Reservation at 1:30 pm with the goal to being on the water by 2:00 pm. Please give yourself enough time to park and unload your gear so you are ready by our paddle time. Paddle Description/Rating: This is an open ocean paddle in winter, so we are rating this paddle for intermediate to expert paddlers who are comfortable with their gear and know how to navigate reasonable currents, wind, and swell. If you have any questions about this paddle, please contact us. Parking: There is plenty of space at the Salisbury Beach State Reservation boat ramp. (See map) Safety Equipment: All paddlers must wear proper safety equipment, including a personal flotation device (PFD) and a leash. Dress for the Conditions: Whether you prefer to wear a wetsuit or a dry suit, please make sure you have the appropriate gear for cold water paddling and that you dress accordingly. Check the Weather Before Leaving Home: All SPC paddles are weather-dependent. Before leaving your house, we encourage you to check your email or our Facebook page to make sure the event didn’t get canceled. Pack A Post-Paddle Kit: Bring extra warm clothes you can change into after your paddleboard session. It’s a good idea to keep a towel, warm sweater, pants, and a jacket in your car, so you’ve got something warm and dry when you get in from the water. Packing a thermos of something warm to eat or drink after your paddleboard session is also a good trick to help keep you warm and refueled after spending time on the water.
