The outing begins with check-in and a brief hands-on instruction, then you slide into calm water and paddle deliberately past lily pads and sheltered banks. Expect close encounters with small wetland life — dragonflies and water birds — and a steady, restorative rhythm of paddle stroke and bird song before returning to the original rental point within the allotted four-hour period.
