Are you a fan of water sports? Whether you’re a pro or a beginner, Shank’s Mare has something for the whole family!

Located on the shores of the Susquehanna River, Shank’s Mare Outfitters offers sales and rentals of countless outdoor activities. They specialize in the sales and rentals of kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding, along with a full schedule of classes you won’t want to miss out on.

For the beginners: If you’ve ever wanted to give kayaking or stand up paddle boarding a try, this is the place to do it! Sign up for a private lesson or get a group together to kayak alongside instructors at one of their guided outings.

For the pros: If you’re feeling brave, try their Yoga class. But wait…it’s on a paddle board…actually over a shallow area of the river. Talk about a workout! I can’t personally recommend this one from experience, because I can promise you I haven’t tried it before… but if you do, you need to share a picture with us after.

For EVERYONE! Paddle & Pizza with John Wright Restaurant is offered every other Wednesday night in the summer. What better reward for a nice kayak workout than pizza (besides cocktails)!
