Sea Kayak Expeditions are for kayaking enthusiasts who paddle often in dynamic water, who have experience living out of a kayak, and are in appropriate physical condition to enjoy consecutive days of committed paddling.
On Sea Kayak Expeditions, we cultivate efficient bands of sea paddlers and, with them, go really interesting places. Expeditions require a comittment to the group. Awareness and willingness to work as a team are critical. At this level guides are facilitators, and it is the skill and coherence of the group that makes the magic.

INVITATIONAL EXPEDITIONS
Special adventures by invitation for those who’ve paddled with us before and shown their team spirit and skill. If you haven’t already, please join us for a Journey or Expedition and let us get to know you!
Various lengths.
Join us on an Expedition if you usually do your own trips without a guide, but want to see some special places in a foreign land, or enjoy spending time with other enthusiasts. At this level, your awareness and skills should be a safety asset to the group in dynamic sea conditions. A Journey would be appropriate for developing the foundation to enjoy an Expedition.
