Is There Kayaking or Canoeing in Door County?
By Skipper the Door County Otter
Jul 20, 2011 - 8:51:42 AM
My family loves the water. We would like to go kayaking or canoeing when we come to Door County on our vacation next month. Can you recommend a place to rent equipment? What are some family friendly and beautiful places to explore the water? Have you ever been kayaking or canoeing?
Thanks for your help in making our vacation full of nature, scenery and fun! I love you, Skipper!
Your friend,

Dear Stacey,
I love water, too! It is my all-time favorite part of nature. I am glad you want to explore it with your family. A great place for families to rent kayaks or canoes is at Nicolet Beach in Peninsula State Park. There is a rental place right on the beach, which is convenient for families. You can rent by the hour or for a few hours. The Nicolet Bay is a beautiful and calm place to practice your skills in canoeing or kayaking. Once you are experts, you can venture farther away hugging the shoreline, which is both pretty and safe. Life vests are included with your rental.
I hope you have fun in the water with your family.
Your friend,
Skipper
