NOLI Flatwater Kayak Fun Day - Watauga Lake

Flatwater Kayak Fun Day with Deb Briscoe - Aug 3 at Watauga Lake, other dates available

Join NOLI instructor Debbie Briscoe for a half-day flatwater kayak trip on the vibrant blue green waters of Watauga Lake, one of Northeast Tennessee's most spectacular waterways. Upon arriving you will be greeted by your instructor who will give you an overview of the day, a review of flatwater kayaks and gear, and a safety briefing. You will then be fitted to one of our touring kayaks, a life jacket and paddle and make your way to the water's edge, where your instructor will make sure you are comfortable and properly outfitted in your boat.

Next the real fun begins as you launch into a protected cove where you will get the chance to review fundamentals and practice basic strokes before embarking as a group on an enjoyable trip to a wooded island in the middle of the lake. There you will break for lunch, relax and enjoy the scenic splendor for a bit before paddling back to where we started to wrap up a great day on the water.

Bring sunscreen, drinking water, shoes you don't mind getting wet and lunch (we will give you a drybag to put in it). Family-friendly and suitable for all ages 7+. Cost is $85 for adults and $75 for youth. Children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult. For more information and to register go to

Flatwater Kayak Fun Day Feedback:
"Had a fantastic time today. I can honestly say that we all felt so much more at ease with the thought of going kayaking on our own. The order that the class was laid out in was great. Looking forward to putting all we learned today to use. Thank you for such a positive experience."
