Maine Guided Kayak Tour, Solo Kayak

Freeport, Maine

After the brief demonstration where you'll learn basic strokes and techniques for paddling a solo kayak, our Registered Maine Guides will lead you on an interpretive tour, sharing their knowledge of the plants, wildlife and local history of Casco Bay. You'll experience a mixture of rocky islands and quiet coves together with Maine's stunning array of wildlife, including seals, osprey and American Bald Eagles. From a wealth of stories and experience, our friendly guides will also share accounts of their many paddles across the state, giving you even more ideas for future trips.

All necessary paddling equipment is provided.

Additional Information

  • What to Bring

    • Weather- and activity-appropriate clothing (preferably synthetic*)
    • Water shoes or shoes you don't mind getting wet (closed-toe recommended)
    • Personal prescriptions such as EpiPen or inhaler
    • One quart of water (no glass bottles)
    • Sunscreen
    • Insect repellent
    *Synthetic clothing dries quickly and is the best choice for outdoor pursuits. Please do not wear cotton clothing. When wet, cotton rapidly robs the heat from your body and takes a long time to dry. We also recommend you dress in multiple layers, allowing you more flexibility to comfortably respond to the weather conditions and your level of exertion.

Policies & Agreements

  • Smoking and Tobacco, and Alcohol Policy
    Smoking and Tobacco Policy
    L.L.Bean Outdoor Discovery Programs activities are tobacco- and smoke-free (including electronic smoking devices) in support of a healthy lifestyle and respect for our participants and guests. We thank you for understanding and respecting this policy.

    Alcohol Policy
    In general, alcohol consumption is not permitted during L.L.Bean Outdoor Discovery Programs events for the safety of all participants. However, alcoholic beverages are allowed on overnight trips and may only be consumed in a responsible way after the day’s activities are finished. If participants consume alcohol to excess in the evening and behave in ways that negatively impact their own safety, that of the group or the natural environment around them, our guides will intervene. We hope that we will never have to remove an offending guest from the remainder of a trip to ensure the group’s safety, but we will do so if necessary.


  • Minimum Age: 12 (14 & under with parent/guardian)
    Participants must be 12 years old by the start of the trip, course, or tour; a parent or guardian must participate with anyone 14 years old and younger.
  • Cancellation Policy: Courses and Tours
    This cancellation policy applies to non-overnight courses and day tours.
    • 7 days in advance:  100% credit or refund
    • Less than 7 days in advance: No credit or refund

    L.L.Bean does not usually cancel events due to inclement weather. However, we reserve the right to cancel an event at any time due to severe weather, low enrollment or other concerns. If L.L.Bean cancels your event, you will receive a full refund for the cost of your reservation. All refunds will be in the form of the original transaction. L.L.Bean shall not be responsible or liable for other expenses incurred by the participant as a result of such a cancellation.
