A Million+ Seattle Paddlers Served Since 1997

Agua Verde Paddle Club is located in the perfect spot for exploring Seattle by water. Rent a kayak or paddleboard and head west from our docks and you can tour the houseboat communities of Portage Bay and Lake Union, including the Sleepless in Seattle floating home; see the Seattle skyline and Space Needle; check out Gas Works Park; and watch seaplanes taking off for the San Juan Islands, Vancouver, and coastal British Columbia.

Kayakers can also head east and make their way through the Montlake Cut and into the wilds of the Arboretum’s water trail and the swampy, wildlife-rich shoreline of the Union Bay Natural Area, just south of the University of Washington and the U-District.

Wild Seattle Just a Few Paddle Strokes Away

Most of our paddlers see great blue herons, and if it’s sunny out, painted turtles warming themselves on submerged logs. Depending on the time of year, you could also see eagles, beavers, coots, wood ducks, bullfrogs, ospreys, river otters, seals, muskrats, raccoons, kingfishers, and other iconic Seattle fauna. Seattle’s waterways are waiting for you at the Agua Verde Paddle Club!
