Begin your adventure in Redwood City, where you can paddle on Redwood Creek or, for the more adventurous, make your way to San Francisco Bay. You can also explore Bair Island, including the Corkscrew Slough, but note that landing on Bair Island is not permitted.

This Stand Up Paddleboard rental includes a paddle and life jacket, which you are required to wear at all times. Dogs are welcome to paddle with you, as are small children, at no extra charge. Life jackets will be provided for the kids, but dogs are on their own. It’s recommended to purchase a life jacket for your pup, even if they are great swimmers.

If you’ve never paddleboarded before, ask for a free intro lesson to learn the basics and get kayaking safely. It’s recommended to start your adventure early in the day, as afternoons can be windier. Always check the weather before heading out.
