The Hunting Island Spring Paddlefest will  be held on Ward Creek at Machete Flats Landing on the western border of the Park. The course runs through some of the prettiest unspoiled marshes on the Eastern seaboard and, at only100 yards wide, provides good protection from wind and waves. What's not to like!?

The 2024 race features an on site trailer loaded with Epic demo skis from Surfski Charleston.

Paddlers have their choice of short (3.3 miles) or long (6.3 miles) courses on scenic Ward Creek and will be competing against some of the fastest paddlers in the East. Both competition and courses are first class!
