For over twenty years we have been teaching kayakers at all levels, from novices to eco-challenge competitors, the necessary skills to achieve paddling proficiency. From indoor eskimo roll clinics to open water rescue, the skills you’ll encounter can be used for sea kayaking, recreational kayaking or white water. Join us for some “Serious Fun!”
Our touring center sits on one of the long finger-like rocky islands, reaching out into the Bay and is nicely situated right next to the Cribstone Bridge, an engineering feat using large blocks of local granite laid out in a cribwork fashion, which connects Orr's and Bailey's Islands. The combination of protected coves, numerous islands, and open ocean make our location an ideal place for all paddlers to experience a diversity of paddling conditions and scenery. Boasting the longest coastline of any community in Maine, a strong fishing tradition, and the unique Cribstone Bridge, Harpswell offers endless hours of exploration and enjoyment for all ages whether by land or sea.
