Parks & Nature
During the day you can rent kayaks, stand up paddle boards, and pedal boats (both electric and non electric). You will get an entirely new view of the city! This is a fun outdoor activity that will get your blood pumping. You can even go at night and just walk along the river in the park and enjoy the lights along the bridge. I recommend you rent kayaks and other gear from Northshore Watersport Rentals as we have always had a great experience with them. They also offer the best pricing of any of the rental companies and are steps away from Tempe Town Lake. They also frequently offer Groupons so it’s worth a search before you go!

Furthermore, NCT’s Friday and Saturday 7:30pm Improv Comedy shows are ALL AGES, and perfect for all audiences.
