Beginning in January 1, 2026, all kayaks, rafts, and stand-up paddleboards (SUPs) will require a permit.
The permit could be a 7-day permit ($6) or annual permit ($20). See more here.
The agency says they must do this to educate and work against invasive species.
We can find only two other states that require paddleboards (under 10 feet) to get a permit to use. This fits nicely with Oregon’s unique bike tax. Everything people love about Oregon is now being taxed and regulated.
At the same time, the same agency is jacking up camping fees for out-of-state residents by 25% this summer.
