You are invited to join us for a refreshing kayak trip to Steamshovel Slough, an amazing watery portion of Los Cerritos Wetlands. The kayak trips are about 2 miles out and back and will launch from Mother’s Beach. On the kayak trip, you will learn about the history of the wetlands as well as about other amazing wetlands sites that are being restored. It will be a unique and fascinating experience and we hope you will join us. It’s a chance to check out Steamshovel Slough which, at this point, can only be viewed via kayak. Rules for kayaking: You must be able to swim. You must be in decent shape to handle the paddle – about 2 hours of kayaking (with some breaks). It is recommended that you have been kayaking before, but novice kayakers are welcome to join us. Wear proper attire for kayaking; you will get splashed (no jeans and tennis shoes). If you are 12 years of age (or older) you are welcome to join us as long as you meet the above requirements and are accompanied by a parent or guardian. Logistics: Meet at Mother’s Beach near the children’s play area. You will need to pay for your parking. The cost to kayak with us is $40 (which is an amazing deal!) to help cover the expenses of the kayaks, paddles, life-vest rental, and tour guides. You must sign up and pay via Eventbrite. Tour leaders will be experienced kayakers from LA River Expeditions as well as naturalists from Tidal Influence. Reserve your spot through Eventbrite to kayak with us. We just have a few spots left for our trip on April 30th, so don’t delay. If you have questions or need more information send an email to Elizabeth. |
