A hand paddle having a handle (hand grip) attached to the hand paddle blade allows the user to grip the hand paddle intuitively and ergonomically for use in whitewater with kayaks or boats. The paddle blade has a contoured hand well, which allows the handle to be positioned closer to the hand paddle blade substantially reducing the rotating force (torque) to the user's hands. The handle configuration allows user to quickly release the paddle in order to use hands in case of an emergency. The hand paddle further comprises a hand strap to prevent the paddle from rotating/pivoting in the user's hands. The hand paddle further comprises a lanyard, designed to break away under the weight of the user, securing the hand paddle to the user's wrist or forearm.
