What to Expect

Paddle across Casco Bay on this guided sea kayaking trip to Fort Gorges, an abandoned Civil War–era fortress that offers panoramic views of the surrounding islands. After a scenic crossing from the shoreline of Portland harbor, land on the Fort’s beach and explore the historic structure while your guide shares its history and future. Expect roughly two hours of slow to moderate paddling suitable for novice paddlers, at least 30 minutes to explore the fort by foot, wildlife viewing opportunities, and open-water coastal scenery before returning to East End Beach.
