Paddle the clear waters of Green Bay and hike along limestone bluffs and sea caves in Peninsula State Park. Land on Horseshoe Island and Eagle Bluff as your guide shares geology and history, then enjoy a light picnic lunch.
Ages 16+. Tours use sit-inside sea kayaks with a half skirt and no confinement. Great Lakes weather may require rescheduling for safety.
Customer cancellations must be made 48 hours prior to the tour start time. 100% refund for weather-related cancellations or if your guide cancels due to conditions on the water. We ask for at least one reschedule attempt based on your flexibility.

Justin has clearly built something special here. Reviewers consistently praise his deep local knowledge of Door County's geology, history, and indigenous heritage, noting how his passion for the area shines through every tour. The equipment gets special attention too – these are proper sea kayaks (Wilderness Systems Tsunami 145s) that handle better than typical rental fleets, staying warmer and drier even in less-than-perfect conditions. His small group sizes mean you get a personalized experience rather than feeling like part of a crowd, and several reviews mention appreciated early morning starts that beat the tourist rush. What really sets Justin apart is his flexibility and attentiveness. He proactively reschedules when weather isn't ideal, customizes tours for different ability levels within the same group, and one family specifically highlighted his exceptional accommodation of a family member with disabilities. Whether you're a complete beginner or experienced paddler, multiple reviewers note he adjusts the pace and instruction perfectly. The variety of tour locations (Rock Island, Cana Island, Death's Door shipwrecks, Cave Point, Mink River) keeps repeat customers coming back, with some people booking multiple tours during a single trip.
I had two very enjoyable tours with Justin this week at Cana Island and Horseshoe Island. He is an excellent guide and has extensive knowledge of the area. Sea kayaking let’s you stay warm and relatively dry even when the weather is overcast. Visitors should definitely consider these tours! Justin customizes for all levels and needs. Update for 2025: Three amazing tours! I can’t say enough amazing things about Justin!
