If you missed the inaugural Palm Beach Paddlefest last year, fear not! It’s coming back and will be even bigger and better than last year. The one-day event will take place on May 13 at Harbourside Place in Jupiter from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. 

Palm Beach Paddlefest, presented by Napleton Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram on Northlake Blvd., is a free, family-friendly event featuring a variety of exhibits, vendors, races/relays, water-based demos, and live entertainment.

We encourage participants to register for these ahead of time at PaddleGuru.com, or through the link at PalmBeachPaddlefest.com. Your $25 registration fee includes a Paddlefest dry-fit shirt. The top three finishers in each race category will get a trophy and special recognition. There will be some extra kayaks and paddleboards to rent for races on a first come, first served basis the day of the event. Other events will include a pet paddle, family paddle, and family kayak relay.
