Saint John and its surrounding area offers a wide variety of water adventure opportunities. Paddle an historic river with a day trip on the St. John, Kennebecasis or Hammond River, and see covered bridges, charming communities, and shorelines teeming with gentle wildlife. Or opt for an ocean paddle, braving the Bay of Fundy waves, ducking into the sea caves at St. Martins, and taking in the scenery. Kayaking is a popular New Brunswick sport – with opportunities available for everyone from novice paddlers interested in exploring the riverside shoreline, to experts ready to shoot the Reversing Rapids at full churn. You can bring your own equipment and put in at one of our many public beaches, or you can sign up for a guided kayak tour – complete with equipment, training and everything else you’ll need.
