IMG_7640 cropAre you a new owner of real estate in Pensacola and a fan of paddleboarding? If so, the Flora-Bama’s Gulf Coast Paddle Championship is an event you should be a part of!

The Gulf Coast Paddle Championship starts on July 24, 2016 and ends on July 26, 2016. It is hosted by the famous Flora-Bama Lounge and is the only race where you can say “You did it on the line and raced in 2 states!”

The event includes races for all ages and skill levels. The first day is for picking up your packet and enjoying a pre-race social at the Flora-Bama Ole River Bar. The real fun starts on day two with races such as 9 mile, 4 mile and 1 mile, as well as a race just for kids! The last day has sprint and relay races available, and a free kid’s clinic where your family can learn the proper way to paddle board.

The 1 mile and 4 mile races take place in the Pensacola River, but the 9 mile race takes you out into the Gulf of Mexico. The top few people in each race will be awarded cash prizes at the end of day two. People are signing up now to compete in their favorite race, so don’t miss your chance to register.

Spend the day on the beach watching the races or compete to win, either way this event is not one to miss. After purchasing your new Pensacola real estate, the Gulf Coast Paddle Championship is the perfect event for you and your family to get better acquainted with your new community.
