Sea Kayaking

Sea kayaking is technical paddling on ocean estuaries, bays, and coastlines, often for multi-day trips.

Rather than have a fixed schedule of trips, we spontaneously organize them when there's interest. Contact Michael Zabre (413.665.5058, [email protected]) for monthly possibilities.

Please read the AMC Trip Policy before joining a trip.
