October is the perfect month to paddle through the "ghost fleet" at Mallow's Bay! Join REI on an autumn paddle around one of the Potomac River's hidden historical treasures: the WWI-era ship graveyard at Mallow's Bay.

Mallow's Bay on the Potomac River is home to a "ghost fleet" of over 200 partially submerged wooden vessels. These boats were built during World War I to carry supplies across the Atlantic Ocean, and when they outlived their life span, they were laid to rest in this serene bay in Nanjemoy, Maryland.

Tickets range from $130-150 and include lunch.
