3 Day Island Journey - Blue Hill Bay, ME


  • Bartlett's Landing 89 Bartlett's Landing Rd Mt Desert, ME, 04660 United States (map)

During this 3-day sea kayak journey, we'll work together to build the skills required for multi-day kayak touring in a coastal environment.  During 3 days on the water, we'll have opportunities to practice cockpit navigation, improve our boat handling in moderate wind and waves, and plan our travels to take advantage of tides and weather.  With 2-nights of island camping, we'll consider Leave No Trace principles, island access, wilderness cuisine, and trip planning.  (For more complete coverage of trip-planning and preparation, consider joining us for our Practical Navigation course as well, July 21st).

This journey is appropriate for paddlers who are familiar with rescues and basic boat-handling, and are capable of paddling ~10 miles in a day in 1-2 foot seas, and 10 knots of wind. 

This is journey is the culmination of our “Foundations” series of sea kayaking classes, providing a great progression towards becoming a competent coastal sea kayaker, capable of taking your own coastal and multiday adventures. Register for 3 or more courses in this series and save 10%!
