Kayak tours are great times. I took one out for a paddle over memorial day weekend. Even if you are not an extreme sports enthusiast, urban kayaking is for you. These are super, non-rolling kayaks that any one can paddle. You can stop by Kayak Pittsburgh any time and take one out. This is an awesome way to see the city. All you need to do is show up wearing some confortable clothes, you might get a little wet but you won’t get soaked.
This Saturday, the folks at Venture Outdoors have planned an evening kayak. I love the idea of seeing the city from the rivers as the sun goes down. Flickr has some great pictures that other kayakers have taken of Pittsburgh – it is really unique way to see the city.

Full Moon Paddle
The full moon is out and the water is fine! Join us as we follow the full moon through the evening quiet and sights of the Allegheny River. The shimmering skyline provides a humble foreground for the celestial bodies above. After basic instruction and tips on technique, you’ll find yourself enjoying the ease of paddling a sea kayak on the smooth Allegheny River.
