Kayaking Program
Jamaica Bay Kayak TrailsDiscover the beauty of the bay from the water using our official downloadable kayak trail map. You can launch your kayak at Canarsie Pier, Plumb Beach, North Channel Bridge and Floyd Bennett Field (the seaplane ramp or Mill Basin). You will need an annual permit, which can be purchased at the Floyd Bennett Field visitor center. Before going out please check the following websites for important information: For beginners, the free kayak program at Canarsie Pier will resume in Spring 2010. Park rangers will demonstrate proper techniques and outfit you with a kayak and life preserver, for quick 30-minute spins in a safe buoyed area.
PLAY with our new, interactive Jamaica Bay Soundscape for a taste of the sights and sounds of the bay—from birds to frogs.
