Plum Island Kayak

After 23 wonderful years, we’re retiring!

We are so thankful for each and every one of you who spent time with us on the water over the years. We shared so many beautiful moments – from breathtaking sunsets, endless blue skies, playful seals, and soaring seabirds to watching so many first-timers become confident and skilled kayakers, some eventually became Plum Island Kayak guides themselves!

Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts.

We’re having a closing/liquidation sale this coming weekend, Saturday, 12/13, and Sunday, 12/14, 10am-4pm both days, and everything must go!

We have a lot of used equipment: kayaks, paddleboards, PFDs (life jackets), paddles, dry boxes, office equipment, shelving, racks, trailers, and other odds and ends.

So come on down and say hello! Maybe we have something you need, or a great Christmas gift for the kayaker in your life!

We hope to see you there! Questions? Call us at 978-462-5510.

Thank you again! If we don’t see you, we wish you happy holidays and a great new year ahead!
