Quick Details
This tour takes a route along the scenic waterfront of Portland harbor, giving you views of rugged islands, beautiful lighthouses and historic forts. We often spot seals and we always view a variety of marine birds. Your tour will start off with a quick SUP lesson. Then your licensed Maine Guide will lead you on a leisurely paddle along the Portland waterfront, pointing out interesting sights along the way, including lighthouses, lobsterboats and 19th-century forts. This is a great trip for anyone who’d like to get a taste of exploring the Maine coast by SUP. It’s also a good way to get a unique view of Portland harbor from the water. Be prepared to get wet — you’ll certainly get a little damp and it’s always possible you’ll lose your balance and slip into the water for a quick dip. We’ll provide a dry bag in case you want to bring along a camera, a snack or an extra layer to keep warm. The SUPs we use for our tours are suitable for paddlers weighing up to 250 pounds.
