🦅 Wildlife Guaranteed: Why Kayaking the Quiet Side of Acadia Is an Unforgettable Adventure

At Maine State Kayak & E-Bike, we do things differently — and we back it up with a promise. When you paddle with us, we guarantee you’ll spot either a bald eagle, harbor porpoise, or harbor seal — or your next trip is on us. This isn’t just marketing. It’s a reflection of how unique our quiet-side kayak tours really are. — Why the Quiet Side of Mount Desert Island Is So Special Most outfitters paddle the busier waters off Bar Harbor, where boat noise, cruise traffic, and crowds make for a louder, more commercial experience. We’re the only sea kayak company based on the quiet side of Mount Desert Island — and that makes all the difference. — What You Can Expect: Undisturbed, rugged coastline that feels wild and untouched Fewer boats, fewer people — just you, your paddle, and the sounds of nature A true sense of peace and solitude, away from the chaos of Bar Harbor. Greater opportunities to see wildlife without interruption — Our Wildlife Guarantee On every guided kayak tour, we give you a front-row seat to the natural world. And we stand by it with our Wildlife Guarantee:

If you don’t see a bald eagle, harbor porpoise, or harbor seal, we’ll give you a voucher to come back for free.

It’s that simple. Because when you paddle in the right places — with the right guides — magic happens naturally. — Sunset, Morning & Half-Day Tours Available Whether you’re looking for a serene morning paddle, a family-friendly daytime adventure, or a golden-hour sunset tour, we have something for every guest. You’ll be guided by local experts who know the coastline, the currents, and the creatures that live here. — Ready to Paddle? Experience Acadia the way it was meant to be seen: Quiet. Wild. Beautiful. And yes — full of life. Book Your Wildlife-Guaranteed Kayak Tour Now! https://mainestatekayak.com/
