Maine Whitewater Rafting Outfitters

Maine whitewater outfitters offer trips on the Kennebec, Penobscot and Dead Rivers. Thanks to daily hydropower dam releases, Maine is the only state in the Northeast that can guarantee water levels even during the driest of summers. Rafting season begins May First and continues to mid-October. Whitewater rafters can choose from campsites to lodges, private homes to log cabins in the woods or by the river. Visit the below outfitters to find the trip of a lifetime.
