I (from Ohio) joined daughters from Colorado and Washington for several days of time together at a VRBO home around fifteen minutes southwest of Port Gamble. Among the activities of our time was the kayak experience.
We found Port Gambel to be a quaint little place. The process of organizing the rentals went smoothly. The woman who helped us was knowledgeable, pleasant and helpful. There were eight of us, so it worked nicely with two people per kayak. Each one had both an adult and a kid. We weren't really ambition in terms of covering territory, so we just explored the Port Gamble inlet. We were pleasantly surprised to experience no powered boat activity in that area.
The end process went smoothly as well and we found the full experience to be quite positive. We’d recommend it to others
Great location, and a lot to see! Was the highlight of the trip for my son. Will definitely go again, and recommend to friends~
We had a fantastic time paddling Liberty Bay. The weather was perfectly overcast, allowing us to see the many harbor seals gracing the docks. The staff at Olympic Outdoor Center was friendly and helpful, as we had a couple people in our group who were kayaking for the first time. The rates were very reasonable and the equipment was quality. I highly recommend!
Such a fun adventure!!
Took my 3 year old out for the first time in a double kayak. It was so beautiful out on the water. We saw tons of sea life and had a great time.
Very fun, but expensive.
We had a wonderful time kayaking with our grandchildren. Q was a great help in getting everything together and doing the safety orientation.
The person who helped us was wonderful and extremely helpful!
Love getting out on Liberty Bay but Kayaks are not comfortable to sit in after an hour. Feel like I need to bring my own cushion. Disappointed you no longer have 1 hr rentals. Now I must pay a lot more when sometimes 1 hr is all I need. Multiply that by other family members and it ends up cost a lot more than it used to.
Kayaks are not comfortable for sitting more than an hour. Need a cushion.
The staff is very helpful and friendly. It was a perfect outing.
Quick and easy rental process. Kayaks were comfortable and equipment was in good condition. Great area to kayak!
Kayaking in Port Gamble Bay is the perfect spot to enjoy a relaxing fun day on the water.
Very pleasant afternoon activity. 2 seater perfect for beginners
