Additional Information This tour is suitable for a wide range of abilities. However, a certain level of physical fitness and mobility is required as well as the ability to enjoy what can sometimes be less than ideal conditions, like wind and rain. Below is a bit of what you can expect on this tour.

• Paddle a single and/or double kayak for 4-6 hours per day. We take numerous breaks and often go slow to view wildlife. The paddling can be a bit harder at times if we need to go against the wind or current.
• Expect to spend time in a double kayak during your tour. With advance notice we can often accommodate guests who want to spend their entire trip in a double kayak but we cannot accommodate guests who want to spend their entire trip in a single kayak.
• Carry kayaks and gear up and down the beach (this is often the most physically demanding part of the trip)
