KAYAK STATEN ISLAND PROGRAM
Kayak Staten Island is an all-volunteer organization. They provide free kayaking for the public at the shoreline on South Beach in Staten Island.

They provide the use of sit-on-top kayaks, life-jackets and paddles. They offer paddling tips and launch/land assistance. Experienced kayakers are in the water for further assistance.
Once a participant signs a waiver (required) and is fitted with a life jacket they may paddle out into an embayment area marked by buoys.
Depending on attendance, there may be a wait for a boat to become available. They limit your try-out to 15 minutes; it is first-come-first-served but paddlers are allowed to get back in line for another spin.

To participate Wear shoes and clothes that can get wet.
Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult and their parent must sign their waivers.
