No, this is not permitted for safety reasons.

Sure, but this is not recommended. The bulk of the session is done on the water and out of view of the launch spot. The best time to see family and friends is before and after the session.

As you know Florida weather can be quite finicky. Your safety is our first priority. We do not paddle in lighting or heavy winds. We will paddle in the rain. We closely monitor the weather and will make a decision to cancel or delay a session. In the event we cancel a session due to weather you are eligible for a full refund.
