Itinerary:

You will be renting a kayak for a 2-hour self-guided rental at Toronto Adventures. You can then explore Humber river on your own or stick with the main group. If you have your own kayak or SUP, you can bring it with you, but allow extra time to unload it.

Toronto Adventures does not require you to have kayaking experience, but would like you to have a waterproof bag with a change of clothes, in case you manage to get wet. It is not that easy to flip the kayaks they rent out, but things happen. Also, if you are a first-time or beginner kayaker, check out my Kayak Exercises event earlier the same morning. A PFD (personal flotation device) must be worn at all times while on the water.
