Our family had a fantastic sea kayaking trip with Whitney. Her abundant enthusiasm and humor made our tour invigorating and fun. We learned all about the local history, Fort Gorges, and had a great tour of House Island. Several seals were spotted along the our route and Whitney pointed out other wildlife as we paddled away. Such a fun day!

Such an amazing trip through Casco Bay. Our guide was knowledgeable and informative on the use of the kayak as well as different interest points of the bay. He took us on a great path through the bay that was breathtaking. We truly enjoyed the day.

Portland Paddle provides outstanding tours. I went on a half day tour of the island with a group of several other people. Our guide, Suzanne, was not only incredibly skilled and attentive to each member of our group, but well informed about the history of the area and Casco Bay in general. This was one of the best kyack trips I have ever taken with a group. Can’t recommend it highly enough!!!
