For a peaceful afternoon and totally different view of Cambridge, rent a canoe or kayak on the Charles River. Row down one of America?s most beautiful urban rivers with majestic views of Frederick Law Olmstead's ?Emerald Necklace,? the Esplanade, Harvard Business School, Harvard University and MIT. Glide along this calm nine-mile waterway watching the geese swim gracefully by your canoe while sailing under Cambridge?s famous bridges. Located in a small boat house across from the Harvard Coliseum off Soldiers Field Road, Charles River Canoe & Kayak offers affordable boats by-the-hour for kids and adults. Their friendly staff offer tips how to navigate the vessels and they even supply you with free water and sun block.
