Portland Harbor Women's Wednesday Kayak Tour

A two-and-a-half hour tour and a memorable girl's night out activity
Enjoy a view of Portland you can only experience from the water
Learn interesting facts about the seaport and its surrounding wildlife from Registered Maine Guides

Round up your friends for a unique girls' night out you'll be talking about for years to come. It's also a wonderful way for mothers and daughters to spend time together. You'll glide through Casco Bay in view of lighthouses and lobster boats, perhaps catching glimpses of seals and other wildlife. The best view of the city is from the harbor, and you'll have the time to truly savor your surroundings in a kayak. No prior kayaking experience is needed. Our two-person kayaks are stable and easy to paddle.

Itinerary
A short paddling demonstration will get you started. Then, your experienced guides will lead you through the harbor and share interesting facts about this historic port and its wildlife. You'll paddle to Hog Island, tour 19th-century Fort Gorges and enjoy a snack. After the sun sets, your tour will end with an easy paddle back at dusk and a stunning view of Portland's skyline.
