This is our half-day or (4) hour paddling trip at the Pictured Rocks and offers some beautiful views of the color stained cliffs, sea caves, and rock formations. Since we are not traveling as many miles on this trip as o thers, we like to paddle at a slower pace. This is usually agreeable with most folks that choose this trip over our longer paddling excursions. The trip covers the shoreline from Miners Beach to Shipwreck Point. In total distance you&rsqu o;ll paddle about 6 miles. We offer double kayaks.
