Take in the Sunset as You Paddle Down the Hudson!
Join us for a Sunset Kayak Tour and enjoy the “magic hour”— that beautiful time between sunset and dusk on the water. The warm evening light will give you a new appreciation for the beauty of New York’s natural landscape and provides an unforgettable kayaking experience.
Start your tour with some basic kayaking instruction from one of our experienced guides and continue learning as you paddle out onto the water, taking in the magnificent colors changing in the sky and the reflections of the sunset off of the water.
Sunset trips are suitable for first-timers and are a refreshing experience for seasoned kayakers! All Sunset Kayak Tours end before full darkness sets in, so you’ll have no trouble seeing during the tour. However, just to be safe, you may want to bring a headlamp or flashlight with you, so that you can easily find your way back to the car or train from our launch locations.
