Paddle NL Annual Retreat 2026!
We will be returning to the beautiful Change Islands area, for June 19 – 22 (Discovery Day) Weekend. Join us to explore new shores and coastline, and we plan on offering more inland opportunity for paddling this year, wandering the reaches of Change Islands.
Sea Kayaks, Recreational Kayaks, Canoes and SUP boards are all welcome to adventure along with our experienced guides. Bring along your own boats as we have lots of paddles planned, so pick one that suits your experience, and taste.
We will be taking full advantage of the hospitality and facilities the area has to offer. Along with the paddles we will have presentations, paddling and exploration tips, gear swaps and community meals. Bring your friends and family along, even if not paddling, as the area has abundant tourism attractions, hiking trails, live theater, and lots of great food and drink spots to partake of. It is an amazing area we are sure you will enjoy!
The logistics of the facilities limit us to 90 participants! Hope you come along, and we will see you on the water!
