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. Snack breaks are often done on the water, and we press on. At this level guides are facilitators, and it is the skill and coherence of the group that makes the magic.
With such a foundation, we go far! Such as… around the weather end of Carmen Island where sea and cliff meet in a restless standoff. Down the mountainous coast where the orange sunrise quietly sets each peak aglow. Out to the granite spires of Isla San Jose where the rocks break the sea, and the sea breaks the rocks, and the kayakers dance between.
