Locations
Lakes:
We recommend starting on a calm lake like Alice, Brohm or Cat. This is a great way to practice your skills & balance before trying one of the rivers
Rivers:
The Squamish river near the watershed offers a great location for your next Stand Up Paddle day. Please be aware the the rivers are glacier fed and very cold, and also that their are underwater logs that are very hazardous.
Estuary:
This offers a calm way to explore the waterways and enjoy the nature of the estuary. Please minimize your impact by not landing in the estuary and stay on your board while in this delicate ecological zone. The estuary is best enjoyed in the morning or in the evening, before the famous squamish wind picks up
Ocean:
When the wind and waves are calm, the ocean can be a great place to explore on your Stand Up Paddle board. Explore down the coast line to Britannia Beach and enjoy a coffee at Galileo.
