Kayak Day Trip on Old Fort Bayou

We had a great day on Sunday, April 25th, kayaking on Old Fort Bayou! We launched from the Shed BBQ shortly past noon, with many folks in kayaks provided by Everything Kayak. We started paddling upstream as a large group, then broke into smaller groups as we found our own pace.

We had litter grabbers and many of us picked up trash as we encountered it along the banks of the bayou. We saw a turtle, some fish and birds and butterflies. We encountered many friendly boaters, all of whom were considerate, who were enjoying the day in their own ways - out with friends or family, fishing, playing on the shore, enjoying the beautiful weather.

Several of our group were using pedal kayaks, and they seemed really fun and being hands free, would be an ideal option for people interested in fishing or photography. We stayed on the water until about 4:30, when we piled into the Shed BBQ to enjoy some pulled pork sandwiches and other delicious food and drink. We hope you will join us next time!
