Rough Water Skills and Rock Gardens - Petit Manan, ME

  • 1039 Pigeon Hill Rd Steuben, ME, 04680 United States (map)

We’ll find plenty of fun and challenges, and look at how to manage safety in these environments.  Our philosophy emphasizes learning how to use the ocean's energy to our advantage, because paddling with the sea as your partner is always easier than going head to head!  (Read Nate's description of an earlier rock-gardening trip on Mount Desert Island.)

This course goes great with the Puffin Journey to Petit Manan Island on July 20th, and Tidal Currents at Sullivan Falls on July 21st.

Course Staff: Nate Hanson, founder of Pinniped Kayak. ACA Advanced Open Water Coastal Kayak Instructor, ACA Whitewater Kayak Instructor, and seeker of both ease and excitement on bumpy water.
