About RideAway Adventures
RideAway Adventures is Cape Cod's largest ACA-certified outdoor outfitter, voted Best of Cape Cod six years running by Cape Cod Life magazine. They operate four waterfront locations — Mashpee Popponesset Bay, Sandwich Great Marsh, Sandwich Lawrence Pond, and the Sandwich Canal trailhead — each chosen for direct water or trail access so guests can paddle or pedal within minutes of picking up their gear.
Their rental fleet spans single and tandem kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and a full line of road, mountain, and hybrid bikes, with the Canal location sitting right at the start of the Cape Cod Canal Bike Path. Multi-day rentals come with free 24-hour delivery anywhere on the Cape and into Plymouth, and a Woods Hole outpost serves cyclists exploring the Shining Sea Bikeway and Falmouth coastline. Every guide on staff holds full American Canoe Association certification — making RideAway the only large-scale, fully ACA-certified operation on the Cape.
Families will find plenty beyond standard rentals: RideAway runs a dedicated Kids Adventure Program out of the Mashpee location each summer, blending paddling, nature exploration, and environmental education into half- and full-day camps. Guided kayak and SUP tours depart from several of their bases, with routes winding through tidal marshes and barrier-beach creeks teeming with shorebirds and marine life. Locally owned and staffed, RideAway combines the convenience of multiple drop-off points with the safety and expertise that come from a professionally certified guide team.
