In the tiny, but mighty, state of Rhode Island, or as the cool kids like to call it "RI," there lies a treasure trove of watery fun that's as big as the hearts of its inhabitants. RI might have the word "island" in it, but don't let that fool you. It is, in fact, a full-fledged state, and not an island, that stretches a whopping 48 miles long and 37 miles wide. That's about the size of a giant dinosaur's playground, if you ask me! Now, let's talk about the little adventurers of RI. Oh, these kids are not just ordinary kids. They are the brave "Kayak Kids of Rhode Island". These kids have seawater in their veins and a spirit as wild as the waves of the ocean. They paddle with gusto, their laughter echoing off the water, making the seagulls scatter in surprise. Leading the pack is their fearless leader, Captain Chuckles. Don't laugh at his name, for he is as serious about kayaking as a clownfish is about making jokes. With his checkered bandana and his trusty green-kayak, he looks like a pirate on a quest, only instead of hunting for treasure, he's hunting for the best waves to ride. Captain Chuckles and his army of kayak warriors brave the waters of the Narragansett Bay, slicing through the waves as if they were soft butter on a hot summer's day. They laugh in the face of the wind, race the darting fish and share stories about the legendary giant squid said to lurk in the deep. But most of all, they love the thrill of the ride, the sun on their backs, and the taste of victory as they conquer the water world of Rhode Island. The "Kayak Kids of Rhode Island" are not just paddling their boats, they are paddling their way straight into glorious adventures!

Those wishing to paddle longer distances and venture up to the ice block basins and Gilbert Stuart Stream near the head of the watershed. FUN. FUN. FUN.
