As intermediate kayakers, we thought this was a perfect time frame and challenge for us. We appreciated the thorough pre-departure safety orientation and the large map on site to illustrate our route. Jenna, our guide, provided commentary at points along the way so we learned about the region, culture, and wildlife. Trip was well-organized and staff was helpful before and after. We had a sunny, fairly calm day and that added to the beauty of the trip!
Great Experience
