This trip to the Isles of Shoals has proven to be one of our most popular events!

Cruise from downtown Newburyport aboard the 48-foot cabin cruiser, the Erica Lee II.

Please arrive at our shop no later than 7am for sign-in.
We gear-up at sunrise, load the Mothership withthe kayaks and leave port around 8:30am and arrive at the Isles around 10am.
In the morning we all paddle together exploring several of the Islands.
Bird watching and seal sightings are the highlights of this portion of the paddle.
After lunch, the paddle becomes less structured and the group may break into several smaller pods to explore separately.
Paddle around the Mothership in Gosport Harbor  or paddle to Smuttynose Island or head over to close by Star Island for ice cream!
For the more adventurous, join a guide topaddle to White Island  or Lunging Island.
The Mothership will "pull anchor" at 3:00pm and head back to Newburyport , arriving around 4:30pm.

These tours usually sell out quickly, so don't hesitate to make your reservations now!

 

 

Also open to Kayak Fishermen!
(Four Fishermen minimum)

Those that are Kayak Fishing will depart the Mothership last and will put-in at Gosport Harbor.
This group will be lead separately by a Kayak fishing guide.
