Frequently Asked Questions
What do I wear? Wear comfortable clothes and prepare to possibly get wet. Most people wear a swimsuit or athletic wear, sandals (that fasten to your feet - not flip-flops) or old tennis shoes, and a hat.
What do I bring? Don't bring anything that you don't want to lose or get wet. If you like, you can bring sunglasses, sunscreen, bug repellant, and a water-proof camera. A smile and a good attitude are also a must.
Do I need experience? No. Our guides will give you basic river information, necessary paddling instruction, and comprehensive safety information.
Is it safe? Yes. We provide all necessary safety equipment, basic river information, paddling instruction, and comprehensive safety information. Also, there will always be at least one guide with you on every trip. All of our guides are certified by the Red Cross in First Aid and CPR. But, as with any outdoor or water-related activity, there are inherent risks incurred. At Live Love Paddle, we try our best to minimize these risks.
Does it matter if I'm not a strong swimmer? No, but we might require you to wear your PFD (personal floatation device).
Is there a weight limit? Due to weight capacity limits on our kayaks, 300 pounds is the weight limit. You also must be able to fit into one of our PFDs with all buckles fastened.
What is the cancellation policy? A 50% deposit is required for all trips. If you cancel before 24 hours of your scheduled trip time, a full refund will be given. If you cancel within 24 hours of your scheduled trip time, the 50% deposit will be charged. No-shows will be charged full price.
What if the weather is bad? We still go. A little rain won't hurt you. Of course, if there is lightning or if the weather is extremely bad, trips will not go and rainchecks will be given.
Can I bring my dog? Maybe. If your dog is well-behaved, a good swimmer, and has a CFD (canine floatation device), you are welcome to bring your dog on most trips - but please check with us first.
