Full Moon Paddle Set for July in Orange Beach

Orange Beach, Ala. — (OBA) — Alabama coastal residents like to take advantage of moments where they can enjoy the natural surrounding on the water, especially during a time of peace and solitude. That is exactly what a 'Full Moon Paddle' provides to local kayakers. 


The Wind and Water Learning Center in Orange Beach is preparing for its next Full Moon Paddle. The event gives the public a chance to enjoy Wolf Bay by moonlight while supporting a meaningful cause. Organizers say it’s a relaxing and rewarding way to spend time on the water.


The paddle is set for Friday, July 11. Tickets are $35 per person, plus fees, and include food from Wharf Catering Group and live music by College Bound Music X 2. All participants must register in advance through Eventbrite.


Proceeds from the event will benefit the Baldwin County Child Advocacy Center.


The City of Orange Beach Wind and Water Learning Center is committed to enhancing life for locals and guests by providing coastal access, facilities, equipment, field trip opportunities and education for sailing and paddling sports. They are active members of U.S. Sailing and an affiliate of the American Canoe Association, following many of their accredited classes and guidelines.
