Rowing

Rowing Area Image

The sport of rowing offers a unique combination of exercise and the enjoyment of being out on the water. The Mission Bay Aquatic Center is one of the few places in the United States to offer year round, on-the-water rowing classes for beginners. Our sweep rowing program introduces you to rowing as a team sport, where the sculling program introduces rowing as an individual activity. Either path will get you out on the water participating in a sport rich in tradition, and high on reward.
