2024 Autumn Gales Early Fall Update -
Hello Autumn Galers!
Fall is here with a nip in the air but the water is still warm! We had a rocking time off the coast of Rhode Island during the autumnal equinox.
Storms starting to roll in, winds building, and more surf are starting to be the norm now. Perfect conditions for the 16th year of the Autumn Gales :)
There's still time and spots left, but don't wait too long to sign up.
Sea you at the Gales!
Cheers,
Greg & Paula

What is the Autumn Gales?
The Autumn Gales is in its second decade of being the premier rough water event on the East Coast and is held in one of the few areas in the U.S. that has tidal currents worthy of holding British Canoeing's Advance Sea Kayak Leader Awards. Fisher's Island Sound is an amazing location and we strive to create unique experiences to learn and gain experience with rough water paddling. The Autumn Gales event runs out of Stonington Borough, Connecticut and uses the New England Science & Sailing waterfront facility.
Our high level coaches and rough water guides create an environment where paddler's can test their comfort zone, gain confidence and continue their skills growth and seamanship. We pride ourselves on a low coach/guide to participation ratio that allows for a lot of individualized coaching. The event is geared towards a variety of paddlers - those that have a solid foundation on flat water and have experienced some bouncy water to those looking to hone their skills in the bigger stuff.
Come be a part of a fun community and sub-culture of rough water paddlers that are empowering to be around - sharing knowledge, exploring and building confidence.
