About Alder Creek Kayak and Canoe

Alder Creek Kayak & Canoe is the premiere paddle sports store and instructional center in Oregon. We have three locations in Portland Oregon to serve all of your paddling needs. We take pride in our knowledgeable staff and great selection of inventory.

We have a complete online kayak shop with our full inventory of gear updated regularly. Feel free to use our e-commerce site to buy kayak gear or just to see what we have in stock.

Want to try before you buy? All of our locations are on rivers so it's easy to demo and rent boats. We have Oregon's largest kayak rental fleet. Come by and check us out!

We take pride in offering the best kayak instruction available. Whether you are a rank beginner or an up and coming paddler, Alder Creek can help develop the skills you need to enjoy your time on the water. We provide you with an educational program that is suited to your needs. Every program has been developed and refined to provide you with the skills needed to master the sport.
