Peninsula Kayak Company is a Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin-based outfitter specializing in guided paddling and electric bike experiences along the Lake Michigan shoreline of Door County. The company operates guided Cave Point Kayak Tours that explore the limestone caves and scenic coastal waters, stand up paddleboard beginner classes that teach paddle strokes, body positioning, and safe loading techniques, and family-friendly E‑Bike tours that travel through Cave Point County Park, Whitefish Dunes, and nearby shorelines.
The business runs tours from a shop located at Lake Park Beach and emphasizes safety and education: paddlers receive a paddle and safety orientation at the boat launch before two-hour kayak trips, and a staff member provides step-by-step guidance for Rad Power E‑Bikes. E‑Bike models fit riders from 4'11" to 6'2" with a maximum weight capacity of 300 lbs. Tours are led by trained guides focused on delivering safe, fun, and informative experiences on the water and along coastal trails.
Peninsula Kayak Company serves visitors to Sturgeon Bay and neighboring Door County communities, including Bailey's Harbor, Egg Harbor, Sister Bay, Fish Creek, and Ephraim. With close proximity to Cave Point and Whitefish Dunes State Park, the outfitter minimizes transit time and maximizes on-water and on-trail time. The combination of guided tours, on-site equipment, and local shoreline knowledge makes Peninsula Kayak Company a reliable choice for Door County outdoor adventures.
