Lewes' 375th Anniversary!
Getting ready for a kayak tour at Cape Henlopen with East End Lighthouse in the background.
9:00 AM Sundays, Memorial Day through September, weather permitting
Call Quest Kayak, 302-644-7020, for reservations, fees and location

The Lewes Historical Society is proud to partner with Quest Kayak on offering a unique way to see Historic Lewes and to learn hear about our maritime heritage! At 9:00 AM on summer Sundays, weather permitting, join the Society's Executive Director for a kayak tour of Lewes Harbor and Delaware Breakwater Harbor to hear about shipwrecks, pirates, lighthouses and more.

The trip includes the Lewes & Rehoboth Canal and Delaware Bay; occassionally, due to tides, the trip may include a short jaunt along the Atlantic shores. No prior kayaking experience is necessary and a short paddling tutorial is given prior to each trip. Historic Lewes Kayak Tours are a great way to see Lewes, spend some time on the water and get a little excercise! Tours generally last three hours.
