NSPN is a friendly network of paddlers, based on the North Shore of Massachusetts, who enjoy getting together for sea kayaking and related activities. Their members range from a casual paddlers to racers, bird watchers to surfers, day-trippers to expedition adventurers and everything in between.

Wild Turkey Paddlers

The Wild Turkey Paddlers is based in south eastern MA. They are an informal group of people interested in flatwater and ocean paddling. Their purpose is to help kayak and canoe enthusiasts find others with whom they can paddle and learn more about the sport. They hope to create awareness of proper paddling safety, promote a greater appreciation of the waterways of Southeastern Massachusetts and provide valuable and sometimes hard to find information about paddling in the area.

Rhode Island

The Narragansett Bay Estuary Program

The Narragansett Bay Estuary Program is part of the National Estuary Program (NEP), a national network of 28 programs working for collaborative solutions for estuaries designated by Congress as of critical importance. Created in 1987 under the Clean Water Act, the NEPs are charged with protecting and restoring U.S. estuaries by engaging state and federal agencies, nongovernmental organizations and local communities in planning and management decisions and actions. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency provides base funding and federal oversight for each of the NEPs, but program management is typically the responsibility of an estuary stakeholder-based management committee.

Southern New England Paddlers (SNEP)

Southern New England Paddlers is a group for new paddlers who would like to explore a variety of sites in Southern New England while learning and building their skills.
