While reservations are required, there were plenty of kayaks and all other watercraft available. It's convenient to get to, but parking nearby is $22, unless you can find parking at the end of K street, below the Whitehurst Freeway. You get pretty views of DC monuments and at high tide, can circle Roosvelt Island.…

We rented a double Kayak on a Monday morning for 2 hours and had a fabulous time. The folks that work here are so nice and make the whole experience easy and fun.

We had a great time and loved our time on the river.…
