  • Beaver and Eagle Adventure kayaking in Scappoose Bay

    Kayaking in Scappoose Bay offers a great opportunity for adventure for the whole family. You never know what you'll see.

    "My wife and I went kayaking in 2 tandem kayaks with our 3 daughters ages 4,6, and 10. They loved it. We saw some beaver dens and a bald eagle. We packed a lunch and ate it in the kayaks. I was worried my little one might be bored, but Scappoose Bay Kayaking gave her her own small paddle and she had a great time. We'll definitely be back and the whole adventure cost about the same as going out to a movie with popcorn."
