Stand up paddle boarding has emerged as a popular new water sport, making the way from its origins in Hawaii to the rivers of NYC. This incredibly fun activity that doubles as an excellent workout is now being offered in the Hudson River through NY Kayak. A totally exceptional experience, paddle boarding in the Hudson is a nice treat if you are not making it out of the city on the weekend. Their 2-hour beginner classes are $100 a person, but they offer a $25 deal for shared boards on Wednesdays in the afternoon. Join fellow New Yorkers and adventurers to enjoy this unique experience out on the Hudson, all while enjoying some of the most spectacular views of this city.
