Next Adventure Portland Paddle Sports Center 624 Southeast 7th Avenue, Portland, OR 97214

"The staff was great especially ryan who was very informative. I ordered 2 kayaks on july 2023 and waited waited and also called ..... I never did get a call back if they ever arrive at the store for pickup and purchase.. I then ended up purchasing at Colorado kayak company for a better deal+ paddles and pdfs all under the purchase price of the 2 kayaks."

"I purchased a Virgo LV from Next Adventure, and love the boat! I had a problem with the foot pegs not holdingf, and Trent ordered some replacements. The new foot pegs arrived and Trent and Paul replaced my old ones with the new. What a great experience! Thank you Next Adventure!"

"Be patient with the wait as they have limited capacity to 5 customers. They are doing an excellent job managing being open during the covid-19 pandemic and keeping everyone safe. Love coming here to find used gear at great prices!!"

"I may be Type A in all sorts of ways, but I am a major procrastinator around the holidays. I just have way too much on my plate and tend to start holiday shopping really late. And in an effort to avoid the malls, I went to Next Adventure to load up on outdoor gear for the family. I've been to Next Adventure a few times during the past year and am sort of luke warm on the place. I find it a bit cluttered and disorganized and if I had small children with me, the chances of losing them among the racks would be high. [1] But then as I was leaving the store, I noticed that they moved their water sports merchandise to a separate building called the Next Adventure Paddle Sports Center. The store is spacious, the closeout deals are excellent and the staff was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I was amazed at how different my experience was from my dealings at their main store. They are especially wonderful if you paddle on a dragon boat team. So what started off as a ho-hum lets get this over with shopping trip, turned into one of the highlights of the season. Since my family spends a lot of time on the water and our boats outnumber our cars, this is pretty much my idea of retail heaven. They told me this is a temporary location, so they'll be moving to new digs in the vicinity early in 2010. Paddle on, boys, paddle on! [1] Btw, this totally happens. Kids love to walk under and through racks and when I was young my parents lost me for hours when I wandered off and decided to take a nap underneath a sea of comforters."
