Kayaking Boston,  Area Lessons and Rentals
Kayaking Boston Harbor and Charles
River
A great way to see the city of Boston is by boat. Tour
boats make runs and a Salsa boat cruses Boston
Harbor on Sunday night but seeing Boston from a
Kayak is something special.   You can rent a kayak in
the Charles River and tour along the docks of Boston
Harbor.
The Esplanade concert and fireworks on the Charles
River makes July in Boston the place to be for summer
travelers
