Welcome to Acadia Park Kayak Tours located in Bar Harbor, Maine on Mount Desert Island home to Acadia National Park. We provide the most fun and unique guided ecological sea kayaking adventures on the coast of Maine. No former kayaking experience is necessary and all equipment is provided.

We are the only outfitter on Mount Desert Island to limit the size of our trips to six people / three kayaks or less. Our tours are smaller and more personable than every other outfitters’ tours. A smaller group is also a safer group. All other guide services will take up to twelve people / six tandem boats, which is the limit set by the state of Maine for one Registered Maine Sea Kayak Guide (We can take out a group of up to twelve by request).

Unlike other kayak guide services in Bar Harbor we won’t cancel your tour if there are not enough people signed up. If even one person is signed up we will give the tour.

We offer sunrise, morning, afternoon, sunset, nighttime star gazing, overnight island camping expeditions, and private tours and don’t require a group size minimum or reservations far in advance for a private tour (reservations are suggested to be made as soon as possible).

With Acadia Park Kayak Tours your trip leader will not only be a Registered Maine Guide but also a certified lifeguard, a Wilderness (medical) First Responder, a licensed residential and demonstrative lobster fisherman, a naturalist, a hobbyist astronomer, and a Maine native who grew up sailing and sea kayaking the coast of Maine.

We lead the way in eco-friendly business practices and our eco tours provide the perfect outdoor adventure for hands on environmental education. Five percent of profits are given to one of several ocean conservation charities you choose from.

The mysteries of hauling of a lobster trap will be revealed to you on your tour (Catch and release if requested. Lobster traps are seasonal).
