Excursion Descriptions
Explore St Martins and its awesome scenery from a kayaking vantage point. Our main excursions are from the harbour in St Martins and include an intro to sea kayaking plus a tour under the bridges of the Irish River, out into the bay and a viewing of the famous caves. We'll have a beach stop below the towering cliffs of the Bay of Fundy and view the geological history of the area.
For longer excursions we leave from St Martins and go from the Harbour to the Salmon River (Fundy Trial Interpretation Centre) or in the opposite direction to Gardner's Creek. We have a couple stops for scenic walks and search for fossils.
From Darling's Island covered bridge paddle the meandering arms of the Hammond River to Darling's Lake or the Kennebecasis River. This area can be accessed in April and May to see the panorama of the sping flood plain, then in the summer months to enjoy the serenity of the lazy waterways and finally the spectacular colors of early fall in September and October.
From Fairvale on the Kennebecasis River cross over to view the geological spectacle of Minister's Face on Long Island. Then hike to the top for a panoramic view of the Kennebecasis Valley. Return to the beach for a snack and then head back to the mainland.
From Millidgeville Ferry Landing kayak out and around the various islands (Indian and Two Brothers) with a snack break at Tucker Park.
In the Saint John area we offer 2-3 hour excursions from McLaren's Beach or Saint's Rest with optimal exploration to islands such as Partridge, Mahogany or Taylor's. Here is a great opportunity for wildlife viewing (various bird species, harbour seals, and marine life).
We rent double kayaks and accessories for: $30 half-day, $50 per day, $150 per week (all fees include delivery in the local area).
