Tasting oysters harvested from the ocean where they were grown is significantly different and better than eating them at an oyster bar, especially when you just shucked them! Freshness counts! This sea kayaking tour that teaches you the basics of sea kayaking on land before launching at Mere Point in Brunswick to visit a working oyster farm in NW Casco Bay! After visiting the oyster farm, we'll stop on an island for your lesson on shucking, tasting, and snacks. Learn about aquaculture in Maine and how it improves the health of the bays. Sea kayaking is an easy, fun way to sight see from the water. We often see different kinds of sea gulls, cormorants, black and mallard ducks, eider ducks, great blue herons, snowy egrets, osprey and bald eagles. If we are lucky, we will see a seal. Paddlers of all ages will love exploring Casco Bay in this protected, scenic, historic area! No experience is needed. Single and double kayaks are used on this eco-guided tour by a Master Maine Guide.

Some cities are best seen from a car window. Portland, Maine is not one of them. On this fully private e-bike tour, it's just your group, a local guide, and five hours of spectacular coastal scenery — with a Maine lobster roll along the way. Ride through the Old Port's cobblestone waterfront and fishing piers. Climb to Fort Allen Park for sweeping Casco Bay views. Cruise the Eastern Promenade before crossing to South Portland to walk the breakwater to Bug Light, designed by the architect of the U.S. Capitol dome. Continue to Spring Point Ledge — the only lighthouse of its kind you can reach on foot — then Portland Head Light, commissioned by George Washington in 1791. Finish on the Western Promenade, a hidden hilltop park with views to the White Mountains that most visitors never find. Lunch is a fresh Maine lobster roll at a waterfront spot worthy of the occasion. No strangers, no set pace — just your group and the best of coastal Maine.
About Portland
Where Bike Culture Meets Old Growth
Portland is the most bike-friendly large city in America, and that reputation is earned. More than 385 miles of bikeways thread through the city, and the cycling culture here is serious — not recreational, not aspirational, but genuinely functional. E-bikes fit perfectly into that infrastructure, extending the range of visitors and making the hillier west side of the city as accessible as the flat east.
Forest Park, at 5,200 acres the largest urban forest in the United States, is accessible by e-bike from downtown Portland in under 20 minutes. Guided forest e-bike tours take visitors through old-growth Douglas fir groves that require zero driving to reach from the city center. The Columbia River Gorge, starting 30 minutes east, offers electric-assisted riding through one of the most dramatic landscapes in the Pacific Northwest.
The Willamette River runs through the city and is increasingly serviced by electric kayak and canoe rentals — guided tours through the wildlife refuges at the edge of a genuinely major American city. Portland's commitment to active transportation isn't aesthetic — it's infrastructure. Come experience it cleanly.
