Our family really enjoyed our day of Kayaking with Alice. Highlight of our trip to Maine. Alice loves to share her knowledge of the area and her passion for the area is awesome. Simply put, Alice is good people. The area is beautiful, so it is a great way to spend a day. We paddled through some oyster farms which was really cool to see. Thanks Alice!

This was a very fun experience. Alice started off the tour with explaining how to kayaks, such as boarding and rowing to keep you at ease. During the whole trip, she pointed out birds, we even saw an Osprey and their nests. We landed an a small cove where she explained the shells that were under our feet. Overall, really enjoyed it and would highly recommend. The one issue we had was in the transportation to the location. We were staying in Portland without a car and Uber/Lyft had minimal service requiring a long wait. So I would definitely recommend bringing your own car.

Alice is so wonderful and responsible. I was a bit nervous to try sea kayaking but it was so special and I wouldn't hesitate to do it again with Alice. We plan to have more adventures with her in the future as she offers different programs.

We did so much in the little time we had with Alice along the beautiful bay. She is so sweet and informative. Looking forward to checking out her other adventures in the future :)

My friends and I took a guided tour with Alice in sea kayaks to Malaga Island. The kayaking itself took less than an hour each way, with mild exertion. Alice brought freshly baked chocolate chip cookies and peanut butter brownies, which we enjoyed on the island. She was a fount of knowledge about the flora and fauna we saw as well as the social/political history of the island. Among other things, we saw at least half a dozen seals either basking in the sun or swimming nearby and we saw a bald eagle. I expected to be eaten up by mosquitoes, as I had been on two nearby hikes that weekend, but I came away unscathed. Since returning home, I keep recommending this kayak trip to friends and thought I should do so in a more official capacity here on TripAdvisor.
