We did Pictured Rocks in Michigan three ways – we hiked it, we took the boat tour (which was amazing) and we took a kayak tour with Pictured Rocks Kayaking Tour.
Wow! They take you on a boat close to Lover’s Leap. Then, you must get into a tandem sea kayak with another person to kayak through the caves and different rock features. At first we were both a little skeptical about being in a tandem sea kayak together. After all, when Windell wants to go right, Jessica always goes left. We don’t even follow each other in separate kayaks. Yet, once we got the hang of kayaking together, we realized how much eaiser it was than kayaking separately.
This is an amazing tour that takes you under Lovers Leap, into Rainbow Cave, and is an excellent way to get close to the incredible rock formations of Pictured Rocks. The sea kayaks make it very easy to maneuver. By the end of the tour, we were really enjoying kayakin together. The best part is if one of us gets tired, the other one can paddle easily by themself for a little while. Of course, we didn’t get the best GoPro filmage with both of us paddling. Another couple on this tour had a GoPro also, but they were smart. One paddled and the other one filmed. But both of us paddling was so much fun and we could go so fast!!
