There is really nothing like kayaking on Island studded Casco Bay and when you combine it with a visit to the Chebeague Island Inn for lunch or brunch you have the perfect recipe for an Active Diner Day!  This trip originates on Cousins Island where you can launch your kayak and make the 1.5 mile paddle to Chebeague Island.

The perfect "Date Night" or weekend day trip, cycling the coastal roads around Brunswick (Maquoit Bay, Harpswell, Freeport, Orrs and Bailey Islands) followed by dinner at Tao Yuan in Brunswick checks every box!  Tao Yuan is the flagship restaurant of chef Cara Stadler, a Food and Wine 2014 Best New Chefs.  Her Asian fusion cooking takes advantage of all the fresh ingredients the Maine coast has to offer.  Wanna Go?  Just read the trip file (attached below) print it off, book your dinner reservation and away you go!
