🌊 Catch the evening high tide and explore upriver when the water is at its most inviting.
☀️ Or simply grab a boat, board, or water bike and enjoy our Saturday Sunset Series—we’ll be open until 8:30 pm.
🎵 And because summer is better together, DJ Bish will be on the dock from 6:30–8:30 pm bringing the vibes while you paddle, relax, and watch the river flow by.
