The hour just before sunset is the best time for stand-up paddling on the waters of Casco Bay. The sky tends to explode with color and the seas often become glassy and calm. This trip involves a leisurely paddle just far enough along the waterfront or into the islands to enjoy a panoramic view of the sun setting over the city as we paddle back to the East End Beach. This two-hour tour is designed for people of all experience levels — including those new to stand-up paddling.

From: $0.00

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for this paddle tour? Can kids join?

A: Yes, kids can definitely join the Stand-Up Paddle Sunset Tour! Generally, they should be at least 8 years old to paddle solo, but younger kids can ride along with an adult. It's a great family activity, just make sure they’re comfortable in the water. Remember to bring some snacks for them and enjoy!

Q: What happens if the weather's bad? Do they cancel the tour?

A: If the weather isn’t suitable for paddling, Portland Paddle will usually contact you to reschedule or refund. They take safety seriously. It's best to check their website or call ahead if the forecast looks dicey. I’ve had a great experience rescheduling before!

Q: What should I wear for the paddle tour? Is it okay if I get wet?

A: You’ll want to wear something comfortable that you don’t mind getting wet! Swimwear is fine, just bring a light layer because it can get chilly after sunset. Water shoes or sandals are great too! And don’t forget sunscreen, even for the sunset tour.

Thinking about gifting the Stand-Up Paddle Sunset Tour!

Hey everyone! I'm considering this Stand-Up Paddle Sunset Tour in Portland for my sister's birthday. She's never paddled before, but I think she'd love the sunset views over Casco Bay. Has anyone done this? How was it? Any tips on making it more special?

Just got back from the Stand-Up Paddle Sunset Tour – amazing!

Wow, I just did the Stand-Up Paddle Sunset Tour, and it was such a blast! The guides were super friendly, and they made it easy for beginners like me. The best part was paddling back with the sunset reflecting on the water. Totally recommend it!
