Join Fairmount Park Conservancy and Independence Seaport Museum for two fun-filled days out on the water!

Independence Seaport Museum’s signature paddle boats are an easy and safe way for families to explore the lake at FDR Park. Take in the changing autumn foliage, use binoculars to spot wildlife, and enjoy some tasty treats as you pedal across the lake.

This event is geared toward our FDR Park neighbors. Paddle boating is for ages five and up.

ABOUT INDEPENDENCE SEAPORT MUSEUM: The Independence Seaport Museum, located along the Delaware River at Penn’s Landing, invites visitors of all ages to discover Philadelphia’s river of history and world of connections. With water as the unifying thread, stories of those who lived and worked along our regional waterways come to life through award-winning exhibitions. Our historic ships, the Olympia and the Becuna, connect Philadelphia to the rest of the world, telling tales about the people and cultures they have interacted with on their journeys. These stories are woven into every aspect of the visitor’s journey, from the first time they enter the lobby to when they walk off the gangway of Olympia.
