Paddle through the NY Harbor to Brooklyn’s Red Hook
From the Pier 84 Boathouse in the Hudson River Park, we kayak and SUP through the NY Harbor’s Upper Bay. We experience stunning scenic panoramas and bumpy water. After we land on the beach, the group decides together to get crab, BBQ, pie or drinks. Whatever we choose, we burn it off on the way back, covering 15 miles round trip.
