Cold Supermoon Paddle on the Petaluma River

Looking for a memorable winter evening experience in Sonoma County? Join The Floathouse Petaluma for a rare Full Cold Moon Supermoon Paddle/Pedal, a guided sunset-to-moonrise outing on the Petaluma River—often called Petaluma’s Longest Park.

This December full moon is the third and final supermoon of 2026, appearing larger and brighter than average. Even more special: the moon rises just fifteen minutes before sunset, allowing guests to enjoy the overlapping glow of golden hour and moonrise from the water. It’s a fleeting, magical moment—and one of the brightest full moons of the year.

Guests paddle in comfortable, stay-dry Hobie pedal kayaks with a knowledgeable local guide, making this experience accessible for visitors and locals alike. Bundle up, breathe in the crisp winter air, and enjoy a peaceful, community-centered way to experience Sonoma County’s waterways after dark.

A unique winter adventure, a brilliant supermoon, and a warm welcome on the river—this is Sonoma County after dark at its most magical.
