We provide the easiest way to get on the water! Paddle on the waters of the Summerfest lagoon, the inlet of the Lakeshore State Park, and the protected marina at Discovery World using paddle boats, stand-up paddle boards, kayaks, or hydro-bikes.
If you prefer a scenic river experience, book a single or tandem kayak for a trip down the Milwaukee River, just north of downtown. We provide all of the equipment!
Join us this season with friends, colleagues, families, dates... anyone who enjoys the beautiful outdoors in the Milwaukee area.
