Maine Coast Kayak Final Report

Maine Coast Kayak- A few notes from the leaders
Even through we had some rain to end the trip, overall the weather was more than manageable. We paddled through everything from glassy calm waters to rolling waves and thick fog. The sun shone bright the day we rounded Pemiquid Point, just one of the many beautiful lighthouses we passed along the coast. The beauty of nature didn't stop there as many of us saw our first double rainbow on Whitehead Island. On our biggest day we logged 18 miles past Rockland, Camden and Rockport harbors. While paddling from island to island we gained a unique perspective and appreciation for Maine's coast. We shared the water with working lobster boats, sailing schooners, large yachts, a Navy destroyer and jet skis. Our students all became excellent paddlers and gained a great deal from our adventure up the coast.
