This was such a great experience! Alice was so knowledgeable about the area and the oyster farms. It was awesome to hear from a local’s perspective. Would highly recommend.

An experience my son and husband will never forget for a lifetime. There are not many moments where you can escape from work and hecticness of life and this is one of them. Alice is very organized and focused on keeping safety and learning as part of her priority. She is so connected to the land and its people, and it was wonderful to be part of that. Thank you again Alice. Noah speaks of your trip often and shares your stories to many.

We were able to explore the beautiful calm bay on an incredible morning. Alice was an amazing host and was a wealth of knowledge about the area and industry. It was a unforgettable trip for the family

Interesting tour Alice is very well informed. We didn’t paddle far and we didn’t actually find the oysters in the wild. It was nice to kyack. And learn to shuck…she was a bit impatient with us. But overall it was a great experience.

6 of us booked a kayaking and oyster tour with Alice on a beautiful July morning. Alice taught us so much about the oyster farms we saw and pointed out so many other things like a immaculate bald eagle. We paddled out to harvest some oyster, then to an island where we learned to shuck oysters (not as hard as I thought!) then we ate the freshest, most delicious oysters I’ve ever had. The wind picked up on our way back so we got a little wet and had to paddle harder on the way back which added to the adventure. This was a highlight of our trip!

Alice is knowledgeable, safety oriented, has great gear, runs a terrific moderately easy tour. Her Blueberry sauce for the fresh from the sea oysters is amazing. I've gone a couple of times, brought friends who were novices and everyone had a wonderful time. Thanks, Alice!

We loved learning about the local sea life with Alice! She was welcoming and showed us the shucking ropes!

We had a wonderful kayak trip and would recommend highly. Alice was knowledgeable and extremely entertaining.

Did this tour with wife and daughter (30). Daughter rode single, wife and I rode double. The equipment was first rate. Alice does a great job of tutoring rookie paddlers. Learned a lot about oyster farming at various stops. Then, Alice pulls a couple dozen oysters out of her cage and we go to an island and learn how to shuck an oyster and eat a couple. You will never eat a fresher oyster! After the trip we asked Alice for suggestions for how to spend the rest if our day, and she suggested exploring Harpswell and Bailey Island, which was also great fun!

Alice was a wonderful and knowledgeable guide. We had such a great time! We look forward to booking many more adventures with her.
