I called at least 3 times a little confused in the different stages of setting up the rental, and they were so patient, even explaining where to park at the meet up location. We were on the water for dusk at Webb Memorial Park and they delivered the kayaks, insisting on carrying them all the way too and from the water. They were so friendly, and this is a BLACK OWNED BUSINESS on their grind. All love and support.

He identified lots of birds and other creatures for us, including laughing gulls, fish crows, cormorants, horseshoe crabs, stripers, and seals during our 3 hour trip. It was all fascinating. During the break, he caught a horseshoe crab and told us a lot about them, then did a show and tell about Cape shellfish. And of course, kayaking on the Cape on a perfect July day - doesn't get much better! The water was cool and clear, all the equipment was in great shape, and all we had to do was show up and follow Matt out into the windy, grassy waterways. I'd go again tomorrow if I could!

Looking for something active, but in nature, my gf and I started to look for something. We eventually stumbled upon Cape March Kayaking. Never having done a kayaking tour before, we were unsure what to expect. To quickly sum up our tour, it was fantastic! When we arrived we were met by our guide Matt. He was personable, knowledgeable and made us feel safe and secure. After a brief safety discussion, we were off. Matt, answered all of our questions and provided insight into the birds and fish that inhabit the marsh. I usually don't don't review services, but felt a need here. I highly suggest people book Cape Marsh!

Went to Nantasket Kayaks last weekend when my sister in law and nephews were in town. Wasn't the most beautiful weather, but we had the best time! Scott was fantastic, got us all the equipment we needed, gave basic instruction, and got us into the water quickly. The family and I really enjoyed a few hours on the peaceful lake. Can't wait to come back! read more

As I write this (July 2024), the cost per vehicle is $25 for the public portion of the beach. I'm only familiar with this public portion of the beach, but it's a mixture of rocky sections and sandy sections mixed together. It was pretty busy when I was there, so I didn't want to make anyone feel uncomfortable by snapping pictures. I did capture a picture of the walk up over the sand dune, as well as some pictures from the awesome wooden bridge that leads to the entrance. There's an old-fashioned snack bar/ seafood joint near the parking lot entrance. Bonus: Very close by is Island Creek Oysters!

The size-able parking area and bandstand serve as a great location for Independence Day festivities for the community with an old time carnival atmosphere which continues for hours leading up to the fireworks. In past times there was a railroad not far that brought Boston's movers and shakers to the lake for summer recreation. Some of the buildings from that time remain, at least partially, such as the present day senior center. Lake Massapoag is the headwater of Canoe River as well as Massapoag Brook. The Canoe River leads to Taunton River and eventually to Narragansett Bay. Massapoag Brook flows to the Neponset River which empties into Dorchester Bay. One of the more interesting wildlife facts about Lake Massapoag is that there is a species of eel which migrates up the Atlantic coast and all the way to Lake Massapoag, moving overland nocturnally during rainy nights.
