This summer, take the opportunity to get out and explore the Foss Waterway! Join Foss Waterway Seaport staff on July 30th or August 16th for a tour of the waterway via kayaks, courtesy of Foss Harbor Marina, and learn about the history and nature surrounding Tacoma. During your two hour experience, we will have a brief safety discussion, life jacket sizing, and an overview of basic kayaking skills before going out on the water. During your tour, guides will share moments from Tacoma's long history and provide insight into the plants and animals that call Commencement Bay their home.
Participants will be in tandem (double) kayaks, so bring a friend or make a new pal! Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult; please contact us at education@fosswaterwayseaport.org if your child is younger than 13.
