Windmill Island Tour
This tour is perfect for beginners and tourists. We paddle along the Macatawa River past the marsh to Windmill Island and back. The calm inland water is a great place to learn how to SUP while taking in Holland. Duration on the water is approximately 90 minutes. Please allow up to two hours to include check in and basic instruction.
Paw Paw to Windmill Tour
This is a longer tour, expect being on the water 3-4 hours. If you’re looking for an afternoon out on the water, this is a perfect tour for you! We start at Paw Paw Park and take the Macatawa River to Windmill Island and back. We paddle under several bridges and see various parts of Holland throughout our excursion, including the authentic Dutch windmill, De Zwaan.
NOTE: This tour is not currently on our schedule but we can book it as a private outing for your group! Just contact us to book.
Pigeon Lake Tours
Enjoy paddling a calmer lake with limited boat traffic as we paddle to the channel and view Lake Michigan. Depending on water conditions and guests’ abilities, we may go through the channel and into the Big Lake. We typically start along Pigeon Creek for a scenic, relaxing experience as we learn the basics and get comfortable on our boards before heading to the lake. Duration on the water is approximately 90 minutes. Please allow up to two hours to include check in and basic instruction.
