There is so-so kayaking in Manhattan, but if you look at the National Park Service website for Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge you will find some nice info. I am actually at the visitor center there right now. And they offer kayak tours from the Canarsie Pier throughout the summer. www.nps.gov/gate and also you can download their new app Gateway National Recreation Area for iOS or Android that also lists all the nearby sites ranging from Brooklyn to Staten Island to New Jersey.

Inwood canoe club also does open houses (I think you just pay a couple bucks for the insurance) every sunday in the summer. http://www.inwoodcanoenyc.org/open-house/

It's uptown but also very close to the cloisters.

Hi Micha,

If you get 4 people and rent a car, then you can go to Pennsylvania a two hour drive from the George Washington Bridge and kayak for about 4 hours down the Delaware River. If you want you can camp overnight. The river is usually warm enough to swim in.

The river is beautiful and kayaking down the Delaware is a lot of fun. Bring food, drinks, sun screen and a waterproof bag.

Enjoy!

There are many places you can kayak in New York. But in New York City it's not that safe as the riptide rough at times. But you can go a little bit upstate New York one hour away to valhalla or Brewster New York where the water is a lot safer
