Description
The Petaluma Marsh Tour - You'll feel like you are entering a whole new world when paddling this hidden gem very close to the town of Petaluma. We explore the narrow sloughs accessible only at certain tide levels and paddle our way through grasses, rushes and reeds where birdlife and waterfowl are abundant.
After paddling for 3 hours or so, we’ll then retrace our paddle strokes back through the marsh, to the river and back to our starting point.
With COVID-19 safety standards in mind, we've made a variety of modifications to our operating plans which will be adhered to if you book a class or tour. Please read more detailed COVID-19 Safety Standards located below and/or in separate tab.
