What about safety?
Safety always first. Our guides are seasoned veterans that understand our tour areas, weather patterns, and of course they are equipped with radios. In addition they have first aid training.
Is there any kayaking experience required to join your trips?
No. Anyone, regardless of his or her level of experience and abilities, can enjoy our tours. We offer kayaking instruction and safety procedures before setting out on our adventures. Many of our guests are first-time kayakers and our guides are experts at helping everyone relax and enjoy their journey. We also offer some trips for kayakers with higher fitness levels. Those tours that require a higher level of fitness are noted in the tour details.
What are the physical requirements?
Average physical health is required. Most of our adventures are not strenuous or physically demanding and do not require a high level of fitness. You should be capable of a few hours of moderate exercise each day. Still, these trips are adventurous, every day is different and on certain days it might be a little harder to paddle than on others. If you have any health problems, let us know when you are making your reservation so that we will be able to accommodate your needs and abilities.
What are the age requirements?
Please check the itineraries of each trip for minimum age requirements. The individual fitness level is more important than age.
How many hours per day do you paddle?
Depending on the destination, the group's abilities and desires. Some groups like to paddle a lot, some don't. Our guides will adapt to the groups performance. Our trips include short rain forest walks, wildlife and plant interpretation and education, bird watching, swimming, camp fire, snorkeling, enjoying great food, beachcombing, and, of course, time to rest, relax and enjoy the scenery.
How stable are the kayaks? Can they flip over?
The kayaks we use on our tours are very stable and designed for comfort and the likelihood of a capsize is minimal. Before we embark, we go over safety procedures, which includes preparation for rescues. If for some reason your kayak flips over, our experienced guides will help you get upright quickly and efficiently.
What Kind of Food is Served?
The meals served on our tours are healthy and hearty! You will find
to name just some items on the menu. Our guides take pride in creating special meals.
