Overview

Kayaking and paddle boarding are low­ impact activities that can be performed by just about anyone after some quick instruction. However, we encourage beginners to aim for a day with little/no wind.

Where can I take the equipment?

All rental equipment must always stay within Big Pleasant Bay, and kayaks and paddleboards usually do not get very far from our dock in a one-hour rental.

For longer rentals, our staff will happily direct you to interesting nearby locations, including several islands and creeks.

We do not offer off-site rentals or delivery at this time.
