The South Slough National Estuarine Reserve Reserve outreach program invites the public to join in a Kayaking The Estuary tour Saturday, Oct. 27, from 10 a.m. - 3 p.m.  Meet at the Distant Water Fleet parking lot at the Charleston harbor. The cost is $15/boat (minimum of 3 boats, maximum of 15). 

This is an opportunity to explore the South Slough as the sun slips behind the horizon, the full moon climbs into the evening sky, and creatures settle down at twilight. During the five-mile paddle, experienced guides will reveal areas of the reserve rarely seen by visitors. 

Bring your own kayak or canoe, paddles, PFD's, headlamp or waterproof flashlight, as well as water and an evening meal. Feet and legs may get wet and muddy at launch point. Driver and shuttle will be provided.
