Third annual kayak tour to showcase Weir River Estuary

The third annual SOS Hull Kayak Tour of the Weir River Estuary will be held on Wednesday, June 18 from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

This educational outing will benefit the work of SOS Hull. Scott Plympton, owner of Nantasket Kayaks, will provide a tour of the Weir River Estuary, pointing out its flora, fauna, and special protections under the Area of Critical Environmental Concern designation.

SOS (Save our Space) Hull is a citizens action group focused on the Hull Redevelopment Authority land. Proceeds from this event will help bring vision, awareness, and advocacy together in support of preserving the beauty, character, and sustainability of the largest remaining open land in Hull between Phipps and Water Street.

Meet afterward for a special gathering at The Drift (formerly Red Sky) to hear from members of the SOS board to learn about their recent activities to bring awareness to this fragile peninsula we call home.

The tour begins at Nantasket Kayaks on Steamboat Wharf; free parking is available on the pier or in the DCR lot across the street from the Paragon Carousel. Space is limited to 35, so register today; cost is $50 per person and can be made by credit card, check, or cash upon arrival on the day of event. Registration is required by emailing: Kayakflower@gmail.com or calling Judy, 781-367-0626. The rain/wind date is Wednesday, July 2.
