To have a safe and enjoyable paddleboarding experience, there are several essential items you should bring or rent:
Paddleboard:The most important piece of equipment, your paddleboard should be suited to your skill level and intended activity. Beginners often prefer wider, more stable boards, while experienced paddlers may choose narrower boards for speed and performance.
Paddle:A lightweight, adjustable paddle is essential for efficient paddling. Make sure the paddle is the right height for your comfort and ease of use. Rental shops typically provide paddles along with boards.
Life Jacket (PFD):A U.S. Coast Guard-approved personal flotation device (PFD) is required by law. Choose a comfortable, low-profile life jacket specifically designed for paddle sports to ensure safety without restricting movement.
Leash:A leash attaches to your ankle or calf and keeps you connected to your board in case you fall off. This is especially important in open water, where currents can quickly carry the board away.
Dry Bag:A waterproof dry bag is ideal for storing personal items such as your phone, wallet, keys, and snacks. Many bags have straps that attach securely to your paddleboard.
Sunscreen and Sunglasses:Protect yourself from the sun’s rays with water-resistant sunscreen, and consider wearing polarized sunglasses with a retention strap to reduce glare and protect your eyes.
Water Shoes or Sandals:These provide grip and protect your feet when launching or landing on rocky or uneven shores. Many paddleboarders also go barefoot for a better feel on the board.
Hydration and Snacks:Bring a reusable water bottle and energy-packed snacks to stay hydrated and fueled during your session, especially if you plan to paddle for an extended period.
Whistle:A small whistle is often required as a safety signal device and can be attached to your PFD for emergencies.
Weather-Appropriate Clothing:Wear quick-drying, water-resistant clothing or a wetsuit if the water or weather is cold. Layers are a good idea in Seattle’s variable climate, and a lightweight jacket can protect you from wind or drizzle.
Having the right gear ensures a safe and enjoyable experience while exploring Seattle’s stunning waterways.
