I had the best experience kayaking on the rivers!! This is a must to take out of towners to! I had never kayaked before, so this was a little out of the box for me. I was thinking about doing the beginner lessons but opted to just try it on my own. Once you're sitting there in a boat with a paddle there's not much else to figure out. I would definitely say opt out of those lessons because it's about $35 for a session.
I was so excited to see a new perspective of the city. You're looking at it floating in the middle of the river, how cool is that?! It was gorgeous!
It was very affordable, around $13 for an hour of kayaking and I was surprised to hear there were no restrictions on how far you can go. Obviously I wasn't kayaking to Ohio anytime soon, because it was surprising how tired you get. I probably made it as far as the Science Center and then paddled my way back under the 6th St. Bridge. I am even thinking of buying a Venture Outdoors membership just for the discount on kayaking! I will definitely be hitting this up a lot over the summer!
