Paddle Maine Monday
Every Monday during July and August we will paddle a different section of the Maine Coast. We provide kayaks, paddles, lifejackets, snacks, & instruction.
Have you ever wanted to paddle the Maine coast but don’t have the gear, knowledge or paddling partner? North Star Adventures is excited to continue our Paddle Maine Monday series for 2025. Experience the tidal changes, biodiversity, marine life and coastal culture. Throughout July and August as we explore a different section of the Maine Coast. Each region has its own unique character and beauty. Known for an exceptional amount of lobster buoys, lighthouses, shipwrecks, beautiful islands, seal colonies, rocky cliffs, sand beaches, and seabird populations Maine is a paddlers dream. We will explore the emerald green waters and remote wild islands. The smell of the ocean, sounds of the waves crashing on the rocks, seals barking, and birds communicating all contribute to a wild and remote experience. Experience coastal Maine the way it is meant to be…wild, beautiful and up close.
July 7th - Naskeag Point: Beautiful, almost tropical sandy beaches and blue water await you on this exploration of Naskeag Point. Peppered with lobster buoys we will experience the Maine lobster industry up close and personal. We will have the opportunity to land on several islands with beautiful sand beaches for lunch and swimming.
July 21st - Boothbay Harbor: The opportunities in the Boothbay region are many. Depending on the weather we may choose to stay among the secluded islands or venture out into more open seas where we can paddle to the tip of the peninsula and check out one of three lighthouses. Public islands for exploration include Spectacle, Ram, Powderhorn, Fort, and Little Ram
July 28th – Casco Bay: Launching from Merepoint in Brunswick we have many options for exploring this section of Casco Bay. Wind and tide will determine our destination. The Goslings, Little Birch, Crow, Little French and Whaleboat Island are all possibilities. Sand beaches on the Goslings and Little Birch allow for swimming, lunch, and relaxing.
August 4th - Jonesport: Downeast Maine is a unique paddling destination. This wild and untamed location is spectacular. It has it all, lighthouses, sand beaches, cliffs, rocky ledges, abundant wildlife, and plenty of lobster boats. Jonesport is a working fishing community. Our route will be determined by the wind, tide, fog, and current.
August 11th - Machias: The farthest north we will travel on our coastal exploration. Jasper beach with its polished stones, sea cliffs adorned with petroglyphs (if the tide is right), and sea caves make paddling in this region a unique experience. Beautiful coastal islands with their rugged granite ledges are plentiful. This is a less traveled section of the Maine coast and a paddlers dream.
