Located on the edge of the town the Millsboro Pond is popular with fisherman and the small parking lot is often filled with their boats and trailers. However, this is also a nice kayaking location. We recommend you enjoy it now because in the next few years a […]
“False” spring has arrived on Delmarva tempting us with temperatures approaching 70 on some days. But we know better. The water is still too cold for safe kayaking unless dressed in appropriate cold weather gear. We have chosen to be warm weather kayakers. We spend the 3 to […]
Tuckahoe Creek downstream from Hillsboro MD is an easy paddle with changing scenery and much to explore. In August 2021 we started downstream finding some interesting changes. A number of larger trees have fallen into the river and many of the small islands appear to be overrun with […]
We kayak primarily to enjoy the beautiful natural settings available to us on the DELMARVA Peninsula. Birds are a big part of that experience and our kayaking speed is best described as bird watching optimal. We are never in a hurry to get anywhere unless a storm is […]
Broad Creek is one of our go to kayaking locations but what a treat to be invited on the inaugural history kayak trip sponsored by Delmarva Birding Weekends, Harriet Tubman Tours and Quest Kayaks; “Moses and the Monster“. This is a wonderful opportunity for those without their own […]

Thursday, June 18, 2020 found us spending a delightful afternoon paddling 8 miles on the picturesque Broadkill River. It’s been five years since we paddled the Broadkill, starting in Milton, DE, and we wondered why we hadn’t returned to such a scenic spot. Milton Memorial Park in downtown […]
On Wednesday, May 13, 2020 we launched at Roger C Fisher Park in Laurel, DE on Broad Creek. We were headed 7 miles downstream on Broad Creek to Phillips Landing where we’d parked a second car. Even though we were surrounded by the buildings of Laurel, the trees […]
