Monthly Paddles for October

Amigos de La Presa is a non-profit organization run by volunteers. We’d love to share the experience of La Presa with you. Each month we have several scheduled kayaking events, we also offer sailing and rowing (by appointment).

If you’re interested in a date that is not listed we would be glad to accommodate.

 Reservations for non-scheduled days must be made at least three days advance (time for us to have a guide available) with a minimum of four people (maximum 15). Kayak rentals for non-scheduled paddles are 300 pesos per person. Here is a link to the Whenever Paddle (click here).

Every scheduled paddle requires a minimum of 3 people and maximum of 15.
 Kayak rentals are 200 pesos each. If less than 3 people sign up, the scheduled event may be postponed (you will be notified if that is the case). 

Members of Audubon pay only 150 Pesos for Kayak Rental

(Just let us know of your membership when you pick up your kayak)

You can make a reservation by clicking on the scheduled events shown below, this will take you to the Events Calendar where you can search the month and day that is best day for you.

Just double-click on the day that you want to reserve a kayak and there will be a full description of the event and a link (in red) to reserve your kayak. Please include your email and a phone number where we can contact you should we need to notify you of any changes.

Environmental Stewardship

Amigos uses its recreational events, namely kayaking, rowing, sailing, hiking and biking, as a way to bring people to the water to experience the opportunities of the Presa Allende and Rio Laja. In this way, Amigos draws attention to the environmental challenges of these waters and seeks to involve the community in a variety of water-related projects that aim to improve conditions.
