What’s happening on the water at Mooney’s Bay
Spectators can enjoy non-stop dragon boat racing, the festival’s popular multi-sport paddling event, Ottawa Wa’a, featuring OC1’s, SUP’s, SurfSki’s, 1X’s, C-1’s, and K-1’s and the showcase of a two-person dragon boat called the DragonFly in a first-ever exhibition race.
