Excursion en kayak de mer au coucher du soleil sur la baie de Casco
Description
Les heures juste avant le coucher du soleil offrent le meilleur moment pour pagayer sur les eaux de la baie de Casco. Le ciel a tendance à exploser de couleurs et les mers deviennent souvent vitreuses et calmes. Ce voyage consiste à pagayer tranquillement juste assez loin le long du front de mer ou dans les îles pour profiter d'une vue panoramique sur le coucher de soleil sur la ville alors que nous ramenons vers la plage d'East End. Cette visite de deux heures est conçue pour les pagayeurs de tous niveaux d'expérience, y compris les kayakistes débutants. L'itinéraire exact que vous emprunterez dépendra des conditions météorologiques ainsi que des intérêts et de l'expérience du groupe, mais le Sunset Tour commence souvent par s'aventurer sur le front de mer du port de Portland, puis dans les eaux libres en direction des îles de la baie de Casco. Nous annulerons cette excursion s'il pleut régulièrement, s'il y a des vents forts ou d'autres conditions qui, selon nous, empêcheront les invités de vivre une excellente expérience de pagayage. Cependant, nous organiserons nos visites lorsqu'il y aura de légères averses, un ciel couvert ou des températures plus fraîches que la moyenne.

Great excursion, beautiful scenery, professional guide, fun paddle, lots of wildlife, awesome adventure
What a perfect evening of kayaking, seeing seals, osprey, and a gorgeous sunset! We took the last tour of the evening and so glad we did. A great activity with an awesome guide, highly recommend!
Our family of 4 all went kayaking for the first time (so no experience at all). My kids are 12 and 14. Our guide was Chloe and it was an incredible experience. First of all, they have everything you need to make your experience great. We flew in so didn’t have room to pack a lot of extras. They provided all 4 of us with swim shoes and jackets. They also provided dry bags. It was such an incredible experience to be out on the bay and experience sunset. We saw so many large boats and we even saw sea lions. Our guide took some incredible pictures of us on the water and shared them within 15 minutes of our trip ending. Literally 10 out of 10 experience.
Great experience, lots of fun! Special treat seeing a porpoise and several seals close by!
Kayaking was a great experience!! I enjoyed seeing all of the scenery!! I would recommend this tour to others!!
So beautiful and fun! Humbly a part of Jenny’s first (sunset) kayak tour! She was amazing, so kind and supportive. Our little group was so fulfilling in humor and kindness. I highly recommend you do this tour! The weather was perfect and the golden hour light was phenomenal! Definitely good for beginners or those with a little more experience, arms might be a little sore but it will be worth it Not super chilly the night we went but I’d recommend a light jacket or windbreaker to block some of the water, though the paddle place does have some options for different footwear/jackets/dry bags!
Loved every second of the sea kyack trip. Joe was a delight and personable. The sunset, calm water, light breeze, history lesson and small group size was a great way to enjoy the 2 hr excursion in Portland on the Casco Bay.
This activity was hands down the best experience I had during my spontaneous trip to Maine! Joe was incredibly patient with me, especially since it was my very first time kayaking. He made me feel comfortable and confident the entire time, and he was also very knowledgeable, sharing so many interesting facts about Maine’s bodies of water and surrounding history along the way. Calvin was such a cool guy too! He was very interactive and made the whole experience even more enjoyable and memorable. Both of them created such a welcoming and fun atmosphere that it honestly felt like an adventure with friends rather than just a tour. Everything about this experience was amazing... fun, active, educational, and unforgettable. They both did an excellent job, and I would absolutely love to do it all over again. 1000/10 recommended!
We're so glad you had a terrific experience with Joe and Calvin! Thanks so much for sharing. Hope to see you for another paddle someday!
Highly Recommend Portland Paddle. Beautiful sunset views with SEALS! Staff is fun and knowledgeable. Very safe! Location is beautiful on East End Beach.
We loved this tour! Joe was super friendly and the kayaks are well taken care of. Also the staff was really kind and they were very accommodating and kept our bags safe behind the desk. Great paddle, would love to come back and do the city line paddle. We did the seal paddle and saw a few.
