Welcome
My name is Paul Kelley but my friends have called me PK since I was a kid. I had the privilege of growing up surrounded by nature, learning the importance of its positive impact on living a happy, healthy life. I started this company to promote access to the outdoors and empower folks to connect with and protect our beautiful waterways. I hope to have the pleasure of sharing my passion for paddling with you.
A Collaboration Amongst Friends
Childhood friends Paul (PK) & Greg connected with Paul's college buddy, Joe, over a shared passion for sustainability and the outdoors. In 2020, Joe & Greg started Hidden Coast Shellfish in Little Bay, NH, building an innovative floating oyster farm. Soon after, Paul founded PK Paddle Tours, pairing stunning bay views from a kayak with the freshest farm-to-table oysters.
Why the Oyster Tasting and Kayak Tour?
Immersing yourself in the natural landscape and eating farm fresh oysters...What could be better?
You won't find another eco-tour that includes a stop for farm fresh oysters along the way. This pause provides an opportunity to learn about the cultivation process from the farmers themselves while enjoying fresh oysters with lemon and homemade mignonette (which we ripped off Martha Stewart's website but it's still homemade)!
