TOURS - 2008
All our tours are designed to move at a leisurely pace so participants can enjoy the scenic beauty of the Newfoundland coast in a unique way.

On most tours we observe wildlife in a natural setting and explore the quiet coves, rocky points and interesting caves, some just minutes from downtown St. John's. We will paddle alongside whales, near towering icebergs and view thundering waterfalls crashing into the sea. All this, while learning the skills of ocean kayak travel and breathing the clear zesty ocean air.


GREAT ISLAND - CAPE BROYLE
COMBINATION TOUR (2 DAYS)

A combination of our Great Island - Cape Broyle one day tours with an overnight stay at a seaside campsite. This trip incorporates the best the Avalon Peninsula's Southern shore has to offer. Whales, seabirds, caves and waterfalls are some of the many sights to be seen. Ample opportunity is set aside for photography, hiking or the simple enjoyment of fine food at our seaside lunch locations.

SEA KAYAKING NEWFOUNDLAND'S SOUTH COAST
 (7 DAYS: August 2-8, 2008)
Cost: $1299.00 +HST

"The Little Lodge"

"A JOURNEY BACK IN TIME"

A kayak trip to this part of the South coast of Newfoundland is a journey back into a rich unspoiled part of the province's traditions and folklore. A dependence on the sea both as a source of livelihood and a means of transportation has bred a hardy race of mariners who ply some of the roughest and most temperamental sea coast in North America. Rivaling Labrador for its rugged coastal wilderness, it is virtually unchanged since the Europeans first landed here over five centuries ago.

Together we will explore this kayaker's paradise and also visit Long Harbour Fjord which extends over 25 km inland to the mouth of Long Harbour River, one of Newfoundland's premier Atlantic Salmon Fishing destinations.

DAY 1: August 2, 2008
Trip by van from St. John's to English Harbour East, the kick-off point for our boat ride along this magnificent coast. From the boat we get a glimpse of what we are about to explore over the next 6 days. As the coast slowly drifts by, we see the effects of thousands of years of glaciation. We land at Pissing Mare Cove where we will enjoy comfortable wilderness camping in the solitude and serenity of this wilderness playground. The next morning is spent loading our kayaks and preparing for the kayak adventure about to unfold!

DAY 2 to DAY 6:
A full five days awaits us of exploring this fascinating fjord with it's cascading waterfalls and sheer granite walls rising abruptly thousands of feet from the sea. Bald eagles, caribou, whales and porpoise may be seen, along with icebergs, sea caves and giant sea stacks. We will also take time to hike to the upper rim and swim in the sparkling waters of the pristine lakes which dot the coastline.

DAY 6: August 7, 2008
After five rewarding days of this glacier formed scenery and remarkable geology, we enjoy our last evening around the campfire reminiscing about the fantastic voyage of discovery just completed.

DAY 7:  August  8, 2008
After a hearty breakfast in this sea kayaker's paradise we prepare for our boat ride back to English Harbour East and on to St. John's.

INCLUDES: All ground transportation from St. John's to English Harbour East and return, Coastal boat ride to Long Harbour and return, kayak & camping equipment, fine food and expert guides.
