See why the waters surrounding Mount Desert Island are considered the premier sea kayaking destination on the East Coast as you go paddling with New England's top outfitter. Sea kayaking is easy to learn, and this tour is suitable for beginners. Anyone in good physical condition can participate. Using stable tandem kayaks (two people to a kayak), you'll discover how easy it is to develop a fluid stroke that will propel you efficiently through the waters of Frenchman Bay.
A registered Maine guide will provide basic instruction as well as commentary on the geology, marine environment, history and lore of coastal Maine.
Glide by the famed Porcupine Islands, and you'll have a chance to see such varied wildlife as harbor seals, porpoises, cormorants, and bald eagles. From the charming perspective of your kayak, you'll view historic Bar Harbor's working waterfront.
