Partridge Island
Partridge Island Experience Overview
- Greeted and presented our waiver which must be read, understood, and signed
- Our Guide ratio is 4:1 or better
- Guides outfit you in skirts and a PDF then proceed to our “airplane talk” discussing route, safety, gear, kayak use and paddling technique
- We use very stable tandem sea kayaks with a rudder, approximately 20ft long
- We get you into the tandems on shore, adjust foot pedals for rudder use and assist with skirts
- We launch you into the water and paddle along the breakwater to the old wharf site
- If conditions are favorable, we paddle to the outer side of the island to experience the expansive views and gentle Bay swells.
- We land the tandems one at a time and assist with exit. Once gear off and stowed we enjoy a walkabout of the island visiting all the interesting sites and relics
- Due to Covid and Insurance we no longer serve refreshments. You are welcome to bring your own to enjoy while on the island.
- We recommend beach shoes or sandals for the paddle over, hat, windbreaker, sunscreen, as well as long pants and sturdy footwear for the walk on the island as the overgrown fields and pathways are part of the natural beauty. We ask that you limit your gear to a small backpack, we can provide a dry bag if required.
- We learn more history of the island on almost every tour and welcome you to share your knowledge. We do use an interpretation map from a book on a local historian, Harold Wright.
