BIG LAGOON KAYAK RENTALS

Big Lagoon is an enclosed body of water. It shares a 3½ mile sand spit with the ocean and is over 9 miles to circumnavigate. Shore birds and river otters are abundant. It is possible to view many species of birds, elk, otters, fish and big spruce and redwood trees. You can also paddle up Maple Creek from Big Lagoon and often see Roosevelt Elk from your kayak! This trip is appropriate for all ages. It is a great spot to picnic, whale watch, and look for beach agates. Families enjoy swimming the relatively warm waters of Big Lagoon and playing in the sand.

Please note: Adverse water or weather conditions will cancel kayak rentals. Kayak rentals are limited to the lagoon waters only. Group pricing is available for groups of ten or more persons with advance reservations.
