There are two great places to rent kayaks and stand up paddleboards on the Waterfront - Hood River SUP and Kayak at the end of The Hook, and Gorge Paddling Center located at Nichols Basin (roughly across from the Sinclair Gas Station). Gorge Paddling Center is better for beginners as you can paddle around in Nichols Basin before venturing out to the Columbia River. Both offer tours as well. A must do in the summer! Try to get out in the morning when it's a bit calmer.

There's a bakery, bar, fresh produce, ice cream, homemade jams and canned goods, and more. Check for holiday events - like the Easter egg hunt, or the fall pumpkin patch. Great fun for the whole family. Packer Orchards also has a farm stand on the "Fruit Loop," but the Farm Place is a bit off the beaten path so make sure you get to the right place.
