Welcome to the Maine Association of Sea Kayak Guides and Instructors (MASKGI)
The rocky, forest-lined shores of Maine offer kayakers a dream come true. With more coastline than California (over 3,400 miles), you will find innumerable bays, coves, inlets, and beaches to explore. Our waters provide a challenging paddling environment, with frigid temperatures even in the summer, fog, huge tidal ranges, and pronounced ocean currents.
Whether you're a Mainer or a visitor, for your safety and enjoyment when paddling the coast of Maine - plan to use a knowledgeable Outfitter or Guide. Use our Resources to help you plan your trip.
