Santa Paddle 2024

Join Santa as he trades his sleigh for a paddle board!  Visitors can rent a kayak, stand-up paddle board, or festive pedal boat from Ventura Boat Rentals (C Dock, below Brophy Bros. and On the Alley). Dress in your most festive holiday attire – Santa costumes, elves, reindeer, or anything that spreads holiday cheer! The best dressed Santa will win a prize! The group photo on the water will be followed by a procession led by Santa through the marina to the Channel Islands National Park Visitors Center and back. Paddlers are encouraged to bring a new, unwrapped toy donation to support the Spark of Love Toy Drive.
