Paddlers can also anticipate seeing a variety of wildlife such as turtles, fish, and aquatic plants on their tour, all with a trained and knowledgeable guide available to answer questions. The 1.5-hour experience includes: - Introduction to the unique history and habitat of Spring Lake - Check-in, safety, and skills debrief - Hour-long guided stand-up paddling tour Space is limited to 8 people per tour, and participants must be 12 years or older.
