Kayaking in Sandpoint

Sandpoint Kayak Tour

MY HUSBAND AND I TOOK OUR KAYAKS TO CITY BEACH IN SANDPOINT, IDAHO THIS MORNING FOR A BRISK WAKE ME UP PADDLE. THE WIND WAS SLIGHTLY UP AND WE EXPERIENCED A FEW WAVES TO GET US INTERESTED AS WE BEGAN OUR SHORT TRIP UP SAND CREEK. SAND CREEK IS A GENTLE  STREAM RUNNING ALONG THE SHOPPING DISTRICT OF SANDPOINT, YOUkayak sandpoint, kayak coeur d'Alene, wood strip kayak PADDLE BY BOAT DOCKS AND UNDER TWO BRIDGES WHERE SWALLOWS HAVE BUILT THEIR MUD NESTS.  THE STREAM IS OFTEN BUSY WITH DUCKS AND GEESE  ALONG THE EDGE. THE CITY HAS RECENTLY PUT IN A CANOE/KAYAK DOCK THAT ALLOWS YOU TO LEAVE YOUR BOAT AND WALK THE  HALF BLOCK  INTO TOWN. WE HAD  ICE CREAM CONES BEFORE RETURNING TO THE DOCK.  AND HOME.  THIS IS A GREAT WAY TO START THE MORNING, I LOVE THIS SIMPLE ACTIVITY IN THE HEART OF A SMALL TOWN.
