Orange Beach, Ala. — (OBA) — Alabama coastal residents like to take advantage of moments where they can enjoy the natural surrounding on the water, especially during a time of peace and solitude. That is exactly what a 'Full Moon Paddle' provides to local kayakers. 


The Wind and Water Learning Center in Orange Beach is preparing for its next Full Moon Paddle. The event gives the public a chance to enjoy Wolf Bay by moonlight while supporting a meaningful cause. Organizers say it’s a relaxing and rewarding way to spend time on the water.


The paddle is set for Friday, July 11. Tickets are $35 per person, plus fees, and include food from Wharf Catering Group and live music by College Bound Music X 2. All participants must register in advance through Eventbrite.


Proceeds from the event will benefit the Baldwin County Child Advocacy Center.
