This is an exceptionally amazing tour. Paddle into Muscongus Bay and witness the rising full moon in the East and the setting sun in the West. Continue your paddle thru the glistening waters of the full moon. A true delight. Check out our scheduled dates on the Special Events page.

Muscongus Bay, scattered with small rugged islands, provides the perfect environment for our multi-day island explorations. We'll spend our days island-hopping throughout the bay, and our evenings camped out on a remote island with a panoramic view of the ocean. You'll see glimmering sunsets, hear the breathing of seals as they emerge from the waters near you, watch osprey hover and dive, learn to navigate the fog-shrouded rocky coast and see biolumenescent plankton light up the waters at night. All the kayaking gear will be provided, as well as experienced guides and delicious meals. There will be plenty of opportunities for you to observe the abundant wildlife in the bay and to advance your kayaking skills with the help of your guide. People with all levels of kayaking experience are welcome. Our guides will offer any needed instruction and ensure that safety is a top priority.
If you have your own group and would like to request a trip, please call the store for scheduling information.
