Description

Lake Dillon Sunset Kayak Tour

Best Sunset Views!

This tour is the perfect end to the perfect day on vacation. Enjoy Dillon Reservoir once the weather has pushed through and all we are left with are gorgeous views and glass calm water. Witness eagles, Ospreys and Mallards returning home for the night and capture a Summit County sunset.

All tours include state of the art tandem sea kayaks. We provide type-3 PFDs designed specifically for kayaking in comfort. Our friendly professional and always entertaining guides will ensure you have a memorable experience.

Location

ALL TOURS LAUNCH FROM THE FRISCO BAY MARINA

There are two Dillon Reservoir Marinas. We operate out of the Frisco Bay Marina which sits on the more protected side of the reservoir. This less exposed section of Dillon Reservoir provides guests with plenty of sheltered bays and islands when kayaking Lake Dillon. Kayak tours launch throughout the day, our earliest kayak tour the Island Tour, launches at 8 am, and our last trip The Sunset Tour launches one and half hours before sunset. Guests can expect to see Bald Eagles, amazing rocky mountain views, muskrats, deer, and on occasion moose!

Ages

Must have at least one 14 year old per kayak.

Tour Details

ALL OF OUR TOURS USE DOUBLE KAYAKS

We use tandems when we kayak Lake Dillon. The water is super cold, and tandem kayaks are much more stable than singles. We do everything we can to plan tours around the best weather and the least amount of wind, but sometimes the wind can build in the morning before 11 am. Our tours are maxed out with twelve guests per guide and with tandem kayaks that can still seem like a small group using six kayaks versus twelve. Using two-person kayaks since 2009 is the reason we average one capsize a year. The most common reason for a tip-over is families running into each other on purpose.

CERTIFIED KAYAK GUIDES

Please have no fear, all of our guides have completed extensive sea kayak training, through the American Canoe Association (ACA). Training includes rescue techniques, group management, CPR, and first aid. Our guides provide great instruction on how to kayak in tandem. Our tandems are the Necky Manitou II and we have found it is the perfect boat for this body of water.

SINGLE KAYAKS ARE AVAILABLE FOR ODD NUMBER RESERVATIONS

If your family or reservation has an odd number, we can put the odd person in a single kayak, as long as our guides deem them capable of kayaking on their own. Single kayakers must be at least 14 years old and should be no taller than 6″3. They must be able to fit inside the smaller seat of the single kayak. Also, please know the heavier the person, the less stable the kayak. Families with odd numbers should book the earliest tours available. Our morning tours offer the calmest water and best weather possible. Why kayak early?

Duration

1.5 hours

Availability

Availability is per person. If one spot is available it means there is room for one person, not one tandem kayak.
