If you want to treat your pup to the ultimate adventure, Urban Paddle in Jersey City offers a spectacular "Paddle Pups" kayak tour that puts your furry co-captain right on the Hudson River. Launching from local hotspots like Newport Marina and Liberty Harbor, this guided, 60-minute excursion provides breathtaking, water-level views of the Manhattan skyline and the Statue of Liberty. The outfitter makes safety a priority by providing canine life vests with handles, splitting solo paddlers with small pups into single kayaks, and keeping larger dogs up to 90 lbs safe in tandem boats with two handlers. Best of all, it's an adventure you can feel great about booking, as Urban Paddle donates 10% of all Paddle Pups proceeds directly back to local animal shelters
