410 Ollie Avenue,Winter Park FL 32789

12 February, 2021

Description

Join us for a single's social stand up paddle tour under the sunset! Beginners and all paddle craft welcome! The best way to finish the day is on the water, under a sunsetting sky, gliding across colorful, rippling reflections. Lake Virginia is absolutely stunning, with clear water, a variety of birds, fish, and turtles, and bordered by beautiful estates. We'll meet at Dinky Dock, a gorgeous, oak covered park. At the beach, we’ll greet and introduce everyone, then assign you to quality, fitted stand up paddle gear.  Your friendly instructor will offer a 10 minute land lesson including paddle technique and safety.  Then we'll launch from the gradual entry, sandy beach and begin our paddle on Lake Virginia. Depending on weather conditions, we'll explore the canals and one of the adjoining lakes. We’ll paddle leisurely to breathe in the fresh air, absorb the natural elements, healing water energy, and connect with our like-minded community. Paddling offers a neutral zone and peaceful environment to meet people and socialize while maintaining a safe, physical distance. After the tour, we’ll head to Park Ave, just a two minute drive away, for those interested in refreshing and refueling with good company at one of the many outdoor restaurants. Stand Up Paddle Skill Level: Beginner to Advanced - Instruction included. Must know how to swim. Paddle Distance: about 2 mi including stops and breaks along the way. Bring: Water, towel, snacks, dry change of clothes. If you're bringing your own paddle craft, a life vest and whistle are required by law. Wear: sunscreen, hat, sunglasses (with croakies), wear something that is easy to move in and can get wet (like dry wicking workout clothes or swimwear). Parking: There is a parking lot at Dinky Dock Park. Overflow parking may be found in the garage just behind it toward Aloma Ave. IMPORTANT: In the event of inclement weather (rain/lightening/high winds), you will be notified of a reschedule via email at least 2 hours prior to your scheduled paddle. We only reschedule so that your SUP experience will be the most safe and enjoyable one possible!
