THIRD ANNUAL – TARPON SPRINGS – WITCHES/WARLOCKS PADDLE PARADE

THIRD ANNUAL – TARPON SPRINGS – WITCHES/WARLOCKS PADDLE PARADE

Sat., 10/28/23, Tarpon Splash Park to Craig Park

COME PADDLE WITH US OR WATCH!  Start launching @ 11 am and mingle.  Parade starts at Noon.

Get your pointy hats ready to haunt the Anclote River and the villagers of Tarpon Springs!  Bring your best cackle laugh and dance moves to go along with the provided Halloween tunes.  Be sure to wear your witchy garb for a festive Fall Paddle Parade.

Kayaks and paddleboards (SUPs/iSUPs) are welcome.  This is not a guide event.  You are responsible for your own safety.

FYI – There are posted signs for “No dogs are allowed at the Park”.

This is not a race, rather a slow parade to take time to engage with onlookers and draw them in with your witchiness!  We’ll do a casual two-mile paddle (four miles round trip) along the historic Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks’ village of nostalgic boats, restaurants and shops.  We’ll meander our way to the bayou of beautiful Victorian homes of Craig Park (restrooms available) for our lunch break.  At Craig Park we will be entertained with an on land performance by the Island Witches Dance Troupe.  Everyone is welcome to hang out at Craig Park bayou or paddle back to their launch point when they are ready.
