Kayaking is a ridiculously underrated activity. And while it can be intimidating to those who have never attempted it, the fact is, it’s fairly easy once you get the hang of it. That being said, if you’re new to kayaking or lack proper equipment, a guided tour is the way to go — and we found a fantastic one.

Argosy Cruises offer all kinds of cruises in the Seattle area, from sightseeing tours to wine cruises.
