Private group paddling in the rugged fjords
This trip is great for beginner paddlers, but you do need to be comfortable moving around on the beach and sitting in a kayak for several hours. We do paddle in most weather, so please come prepared for rain!
Photography
We use sit-in kayaks for this trip. You can have your camera around your neck or in a dry bag — we do have water-tight compartments in all of our sit-in kayaks for you to store your gear, but it can be hard to access these compartments while on the water.
Due to Park regulations and consideration of other guests, we do not allow drones to be flown on this trip, unless a private tour is booked.
Other Details
It's important to bring waterproof and warm clothes to ensure that your experience is as pleasant as possible.
Be sure to ask us for recommendations on specific clothing and gear. Good rain gear is a must.
