PLEASE NOTE: We have two launch locations, the Boathouse at 165 2nd St. / off Bond St. and the Bunker at the end of 19th St. off of 3rd Ave. The starting place for each activity is listed with the event listing. In general, guided tours leave from 19th St. Walk-Up paddling may be at either location, depending on the current status of the work in the canal. It takes about 35 minutes to walk between the locations and about 10 minutes to drive. PLEASE CHECK the location to ensure you are not late to a timed tour. Trips can not be joined once the group leaves the dock.
