If you would like a guided tour or rentals off site, we’ll be happy to deliver them free of charge anywhere in Kennebunk, Kennebunkport, Cape Porpoise, Goose Rocks Beach, Biddeford Pool, Hills Beach, Wells, Moody, and beyond. Deliveries outside our normal area are possible for weekly rentals as well.

We strive to bring you the newest and best in the Kayak Industry. We feature Malibu Kayaks, Emotion Kayaks, and RTM Kayaks, all of which we consider the finest recreational Kayaks around.

Our Kayaks range in design from Fishing Kayaks to Surf Kayaks, Family Kayaks to just plain old fun Kayaks.

Kayak Excursions offers many great opportunities for Kayaking, not only along the shoreline, but also in the countless tidal estuaries and coves which abound in this beautiful part of the state.

We have operated in the Kennebunkport area since the 1990’s and will gladly point you to great Kayaking spots in the area, whether you’re renting from us or have your own kayaks. We’ll also gladly show you “our” Maine on a Tour with one of our registered Maine Guides.

If you are simply looking for a place to launch your own kayak, or if you want to see places we use to launch, click here for a map with launch sites from Moody to Biddeford.

Rentals

None of our Kayak Rentals require any previous experience. Our fleet consists mainly of sit-on-top Kayaks which are extremely safe, very stable, unsinkable, and very user friendly.

All Rentals include a FREE lesson if needed or desired (about a 5 minute process). Take advantage of our FREE delivery to a location of your choice, whether for a half day, a week, or anywhere in between (hourly rentals are available at our location). If you are unfamiliar with the area or would like some ideas on where to go, we’ll be more than happy to suggest appropriate areas for you. We also provide customized maps of the area you will be paddling at no charge.

All Rentals will include Paddle, Backrest, Lifejacket, Drybag, and a Map. Feel free to print and fill out our waiver and rental agreement Forms ahead of time, to save a little time.

If you would like to explore the area by Kayak, or just want to get out and paddle for fun, but are not comfortable doing it on your own (there’s nothing wrong with that, it can seem a little intimidating), why not try one of our guided tours? We have regularly scheduled, as well as custom tours available to suit your needs. Click here for details.

We now also offer our motorized Kayaks for rent. These have a trolling motor mounted on the back, and steer using foot pedals. The speed control is in the cockpit and will run the kayak at about 6mph for up to 10 hours.

Tours

All of our Guided Tours are suitable for beginners as well as advanced Paddlers. If you have never Kayaked before we recommend that you show up about 15 minutes before the scheduled departure of the tour, so that we can give you a quick lesson and get you comfortable with the Kayak before we get going. One of our registered Maine Guides will be able to help you with any questions or problems you may have along the way as well.

Most of our guided tours are 3 hours in length (except where noted otherwise), and cost $50 per person. Group rates available for parties of 6 or more.

Why go on a tour instead of just renting? Well there’s a few reasons.

There is the comfort factor…..All our tours are led by registered Maine Guides, who go through rigorous training and testing to achieve that status, are certified in First Aid and CPR, and are very familiar with the local waters.

There’s also the entertainment factor……our guides will give you insight, stories and local lore of the areas you’re paddling, as well as identifying wildlife and points of interest. If you want to save a little time, click here to print our waiver, fill it out, and bring it with you.
