Paddling
The Maine Chapter currently does not have a Paddling Committee Chair. If you are interested in becoming involved, please let us know! FMI contact. The chapter does have active paddling leaders so please visit our calendar page for a list of trips. Below is some information on paddling activities in the state.
Knubble Bay:
Not directly affiliated with the Maine AMC Chapter, Knubble Bay Camp and Beal Island, located on the tidal Sasanoa River, are favorite destinations for outdoor enthusiasts of all ages. Open to the public for rental, the cabin at Knubble Bay Camp and the 64-acres of Beal Island are ideal locations from which to explore the marvels of Mid-Coast Maine.
