Synopsis

Experienced trip leader Jennifer Paigen knows all the paddling routes well, and her guidebook offers a thorough overview of the information kayakers need to know for safe, enjoyable trips in these waters. Mount Desert Island, with its spectacular scenery, sheltered coves, historic towns, and outlying archpelago, is a sea kayaker's playground. Jennifer Paigen, a seasoned leader of kayak excursions in the area, shares a wealth of information she has gained through years of paddling - where to put in, where to park, how to avoid hazards, what weather conditions to watch for, and which islands are accessible to the public. This clear, concise guide offers listings for guided trips and all kinds of paddler resources. It also includes some interesting pieces of the human and natural history of an extraordinary archipelago. Illustrated with photographs and maps.
