Gain a fresh perspective on a beloved local treasure with this sea kayaking tour through the Boston Harbor Islands National and State Park. We'll spend the day paddling the historic Boston Harbor and enjoy a picnic lunch on one of the beautiful islands. After introductions with your group and guides, we'll enjoy a scenic ferry ride from Hingham Harbor to Peddocks Island, once home to an active military fort. Learn all about the surrounding salt-water ecosystem and maybe even catch a glimpse of a jellyfish or harbor seal under the water's surface. Once on the island, we'll be outfitted with sea kayaks and gear for the day before setting off. This tour is appropriate for confident paddlers who have experience kayaking in areas of exposure to moderate wind and wave conditions. The best thing about this tour? We provide the equipment, and the stellar guides - you just have to show up. We can't wait to paddle with you!
