Joe and I have been wanting to try kayaking. Kayaking is big at Acadia, so we decided to give it a try. Doesn't Joe look good in his spray skirt! |
The kayaking business bussed all of us to Frenchman's Bay. It was a beautiful day, until we got to the bay. |
We chose Coastal Kayaking Tour as our guiding tour. There are many different kayak guided tours in Acadia to chose from. |
As we pulled up to the Burnt porcupine Island the fog cleared. |
Another group of kayaks left the island that we were on, but further down the beach. They were from a different company. |
A sail boat went by, while we were on the island. |
You can't see them very well, but there were lobster buoy's everywhere off in the water. |
Our guide helped push all of us out into the water, and then we had to wait for her. It gave me time to get my camera out of the dry bag. |
I turned around and got Joe's picture. You can see how his spray skirt hook to the kayak. |
Then Joe took a picture of me. I got the worst spray skirt. Mine was wet when I got it. It was not plastic like Joe's. Mine leaked like crazy and I was soaking wet by the time I got to the island. |
The green bag in the front of our kayak is our dry bag. Our kayak company gave that to us for our trip. |
Joe's and my lower back were really hurting on the return trip. I was also wearing down in energy, so Joe was having to pull my weight most of the time coming back. |
Now that we know how to kayak, we will just rent them and go on our own. |
As we head to our landing spot we see the fog where we left it. |
As we drove on Hwy 3, we came to Seal Harbor. |
Seal Harbor Beach |
View back to where I had taken the first pictures of the bay. |
There were a few islands out in the bay. |
We continued on our way to Northeast Harbor, and saw a, "For Sale" sign and flyer for this lot. |
We walked down to the dock. |
