About Oceanport Paddle Club
Oceanport Paddle Club is the heart of the river—founded and run by Oceanport local Chris Macioch, a technology teacher of 25 years, surf instructor, river guide, and endurance paddler who has completed multiple Xtreme charity paddles, including a 30-mile journey from Oceanport to Battery Park and several SEA Paddle NYC circumnavigations of Manhattan. What started as a simple love for being on the water has grown into a family-powered community hub supported by Chris’s wife Jen, their kids Drew, Cameron, and Christian, and the club’s unofficial mascot, Sam, who greets paddlers like old friends. Whether you’re here for a peaceful paddle, a family adventure, or a full-blown summer experience, OPC delivers positive vibes, expert instruction, and a welcoming community built on passion, resilience, and a whole lot of heart.

Great place to kayak or SUP! Calm water in the bay with interesting things to look at from birds to sea life to beautiful homes. Had fun paddling under the bridges. Easy parking & great staff. Very friendly and helpful.
