Coastal Kayaking Skills - Bar Harbor

  • Bridge St Bar Harbor, ME, 04609 United States (map)

Enjoy an up-close introduction to the spectacular islands and coastlines of Frenchman Bay while refining your kayaking skills. This day of coastal skills training will be offered in the context of a journey, and help you expand your flatwater paddling skills into a coastal kayaking environment. Join us to learn or review a variety of foundational skills (basic trip planning, boat control in wind, rescues, and more) and get on the path to creating your own adventures in a sea kayak. 

This class is appropriate for those who are fairly new to sea kayaking, or experienced paddlers without much prior instruction.  (To get the most out of this Coastal Skills day, consider joining us for Introductory Skills on June 28th to learn strokes and rescues in a flat-water environment.)

$160 per person (equipment included, if needed) Contact us for more information or Register Here.

This is day two of our “Foundations” series of sea kayaking classes, providing a great progression towards becoming a competent coastal sea kayaker, capable of taking your own day and overnight adventures.
Continue the journey with Intro to Rocks, Intro to Current and Practical Navigation Skills, July 8th, 9th and 12th.
