Overview

For experienced paddlers: Get a view of the San Francisco Bay like no other! Join us at Crane Cove Park to launch and paddle along the central waterfront. Depending on the currents we'll either head North past the Chase Center, past Pier 54 for view of the skyline, or south to Pier 70 for another vantage. We'll likely encounter wildlife and will certainly have an adventure.
