THANK YOU! to everyone who made the 35th Annual Delmarva Paddlers Retreat a success!
Planning is underway for next year's event, scheduled for October 10th - 12th, 2025, and Anders Thygesen will be returning for another epic kayak build! Stay tuned here and on our Facebook page for updates.
The Delmarva Paddlers Retreat is an annual gathering of Greenland-style sea kayakers on the western shore of Rehoboth Bay in Lewes, DE. There we gather to celebrate the origins of kayaking and to hone traditional kayaking techniques and skills. Whether you are looking to learn your first kayak roll, or develop an understanding of advanced traditional techniques, the Delmarva Paddlers Retreat is the place to do it.
