About Stone Harbor Wilderness Supply
Stone Harbor Wilderness Supply is Grand Marais' downtown outfitter, a block from the harbor on East 1st Street. The shop stocks paddling, camping, and winter gear for the North Shore and doubles as a rental and guiding hub for travelers who arrive without equipment.
Rentals cover sea kayaks, recreational kayaks, canoes, stand-up paddleboards, and camping gear, with delivery options for inland lakes and BWCA entry points. Guided offerings lean into the area's signature water: sea-kayak tours on Lake Superior around the Grand Marais harbor and shoreline, plus seasonal trips and clinics for newer paddlers. In winter the shop pivots to snowshoes and cold-weather equipment so the rental counter runs year-round.
Its harborside location is the draw — visitors can walk from a coffee shop to the rental counter and be paddling Lake Superior within the hour, no trailer or roof rack required. For a walkable tourist town like Grand Marais, that convenience, backed by staff who paddle these waters daily, has made Stone Harbor the default first stop for gear on the upper North Shore.
