Sea Kayaking is a great way to experience Acadia. Our guide, Corky was awesome and we had loads of fun during the 4 hours of kayaking maine shorelines

We are experienced paddlers and experience was first rate from beginning to end. Most on trip were not experienced and they also had great time. Wonderful area to paddle, not to be missed! Guide was top notch, other staff were friendly and helpful, and equipment was in good shape. See Maine waters, seals, eagle's nest, etc.

Our guide Corky was very informative and made sure we took time to enjoy the scenery. We had previously taken a kayak trip... More

We took the afternoon Sea Kayak tour on June 15th. We were fortunate to have beautiful weather, light winds, and a great stretch or water to paddle from Pretty Marsh to Seal Cove. Everyone on the staff at Maine State Sea Kayak treated us in a warm, professional, and courteous manner. Our guide, Jake, provided instructions on the equipment and... More
