Established in 1972, Catch a Canoe & Bicycles, Too! is the Mendocino Coast’s only fullservice outdoor shop, providing year-round rentals, sales and service of a wide selection of redwood outriggers, kayaks, canoes, SUP’s and bicycles. The Big River Cruise is a professionally guided tour and departs daily during the summer aboard the Mendoléa Voyaging Canoe. This unique group voyaging canoe is equipped with downwind sails and a solar electric drive for an effortless cruise up beautiful Big River Estuary—be alert for harbor seals, river otters, birds and more.
Redwood Outriggers are their specialty and are made locally from reclaimed old growth. Several configurations are available for one to seven persons, and the Canine Series is made specifically for dogs and their humans. All outriggers are designed in house at Catch a Canoe and are ultra-stable, narrow and efficient, with foot rudder control for easy steering.
For those who prefer bicycles, the 8-mile-long Big River Trail is a close and easy ride. Catch a Canoe designs and distributes the definitive mountain bike trail map for this area, which can be used to explore the myriad of awesome trails in and around Mendocino. Catch A Canoe & Bicycles Too! is open year-round, daily from 9am to 5pm.
