Explore the inner Boston Harbor Islands and its National Park Lands on one of our most popular kayak tours. The paddle starts at our newest Eastern Mountain Sports Location in Hingham, MA. From we travel to the launch at Hingham Harbor, cover some basic instruction and get outfitted to paddle. This easy sheltered tour takes us around a few of the inner islands and visits the northern tip of Worlds Ends Reservation. From the Reservation there are sweeping views of Hull, Boston Harbor, the Boston skyline, and the larger Harbor Islands. While paddling between Sarah, Langley and Ragged Island we see American Oystercatchers, Glossy Ibis, and many birds of prey feeding amongst the rocks and tidal flats. From this vantage point we view the massive power generating windmills at Hull and Nantasket. Later in the day we stretch our legs on one of the many islands and have a snack as we talk about the extensive preservation work that has allowed this area to become a vital resource for all of its visitors. Come be a part of this fun paddle around Hingham Harbor!
