We
believe getting people outdoors helps the body and soul. Participation
in outdoor activities allows people to commune with nature and relax and
recharge in a serene environment. Lake kayaking provides people with a
leisure experience, which removes them from the stresses of everyday life
and provides an environment for physical strengthening and mental relaxation.
Maine Kayak offers a half and full day trips on Maines beautiful
and scenic lakes for all ages and all abilities.
HALF
DAY:
The half-day trip will begin with a morning the on water evaluation where
we will determine the needs and skills of all participants. We will also
review basic skills to ensure that you have developed safe and proper
boating form. The half-day will begin at 9:00 a.m. either at the Long
Lake boat lunch in the Belgrade Lake region or at Lily Bay State Park
on Moosehead Lake. We will be on the water learning and sight seeing for
approximately four hours. The focus of the morning will be to teach people
all the proper skills to have a fun and safe paddle with friends when
they get home.
FULL
DAY:
The full day trip will begin similar to the half-day trip. In the morning
we will briefly cover the proper way of paddling a kayak and the proper
way of using the equipment. In the afternoon we will have a full lunch
while enjoying the lake views and abundant wildlife. The afternoon will
be spent leisurely lake paddling along the abundant Belgrade Lake region
or Moosehead Lake shoreline. The full day paddle can be tailored to each
individuals needs, because of the time on the water and through a low
participant to instructor ratio of 6 to 1.
