Not everyone is here long enough to enjoy our longer rental options so we are now offering hourly rentals down at Hadley Point Beach! Acadia Paddle is the only outfit that does hourly kayak rentals on the ocean on Mount Desert Island without a guide!

This is a perfect way to experience the coast of Maine and Acadia National Park from the water. You have a good chance of seeing seals, bald eagles, porpoise, and other sea birds. The waterway in front of the rental is extremely protected and has very little waves, very little wind, and no current which make for perfect paddling for all ages and skill levels.

From the rental location you can paddle to The Ovens, a geologic cave structure that can only be accessed by water, or paddle across to the mainland to Lamoine Beach, or paddle to Thomas Island and have a picnic.  

Due to weather and boat availability we advise you to call or email and make a booking even the day before, or the morning of, to confirm hours of operation and boat availability. We will not be offering this service on rainy days nor in the off season. If you wish to book further in advance you certainly can as well.

*This is not a guided tour, nor is that an option.
