Launch at dusk for a guided full moon paddle on the quiet, flat waters of Tully Lake. We’ll ease into an unhurried pace along protected shorelines and coves, keeping lights low to preserve night vision while guides set a calm rhythm and offer simple night‑navigation tips. Expect a relaxed evening on flatwater with moments to pause, listen for nocturnal wildlife, and enjoy the moonrise reflected on the lake.
