About

We offer quality rentals, both single and double kayaks, canoes, and SUPs or paddle boards. Our rentals are suitable for beginner paddlers, families with young children as well as adventure seekers. We provide all your necessary equipment, maps with route suggestions and any instruction you need. Rentals are open by appointment in June and September and Monday-Saturday 9am-5pm through July and August.

Our half day sea kayak tours offer a chance to explore both the harbour and the open ocean. Beginners are very welcome, but a certain level of fitness is necessary for the challenges of open ocean paddling in Northern Cape Breton. The tours are suitable for ages 13 and up only. Tours run Mid July-Sept 1st at 10am.
