North Shore Kayak & Bike Adventures and Flip-Flop Emporium

"I moved here from Arizona, very clueless. The owner Clay was very generous with his time. I can tell right away that he is doing this because he loves it, not for a quick buck. If only all service and adventure companies were run by people like him. Highly recommend."

"This shop is the best, hands down! I have been renting kayaks at North Shore for the past two years. Not only do they have a great selection of kayaks and tours but the owner, Clay, is a genuinely awesome guy. During one of my multi-day rentals, Clay travelled all the way to my Airbnb to help troubleshoot a problem with my Kayak. I use the shop mostly to rent kayaks for fishing and its always a great time (see attached photo). I will keep coming back!"

"I've gone on the trip to the Dry Salvages with North Shore so many times because I love it! This time was great, too! It's so much fun to see all of the colorful kayaks in a row at the boathouse. Loading into the kayaks is easy at their beach. The trip out is so exciting, and then seeing seals every time is amazing. This time, we stayed out at the seals for about 1.5 hours, watching their antics and taking pictures and videos. We even heard seals that were hauled out howling! Thank you for a consistently great time!"

"We rented 2 kayaks in the last time block in the afternoon. North Shore Kayak Adventures put our minds at ease re: the weather and gave us good pointers to have a good paddle before we had to return the boats. Visiting Straightsmouth lighthouse was awesome and it fit the rental time perfectly. Such a pretty place to explore! I would highly recommend the experience to all levels wanting to get a little adventure on the north shore."

"Had an unforgettable kayak adventure with Clay as our guide! We were able to go to both Islands! We will definitely be back next year for another adventure!"
