Sea Kayaking - Alaska

Southeast Alaska's many islands create a series of sheltered and connected waterways - a perfect, nearly unbroken passage for marine wildlife migrating from the south. The Icy Strait area, which includes Cross Sound, Icy Strait, and the lower, ice-free area of Glacier Bay, comprises the northern end of that migratory waterway, and an important feeding area for many marine mammals. Visit the waters of the Icy Strait area in the summer and there's a good chance you'll see endangered humpback whales gorging themselves on their annual northern feast of plankton.

Maui is the undisputed playground of Hawaii. No other Island has the range of activities and scenery available to you here. There’s almost nothing that you can’t do here on Maui: hike in pristine rainforests, snorkel in an extinct crater, coast a bicycle 10,000 feet down a volcano, walk along miles of beaches, dive into a natural freshwater pool, lie on a black or even a red sand beach. Whatever fantasy you have, Maui is bound to deliver.

So imagine yourself paddle boarding with humpback whales, snorkeling with sea turtles, and experiencing the trip of a lifetime.

Sea Kayaking - Baja

The Sea of Cortez in Baja, Mexico is one of the world's richest seas. Home to an amazing variety of fish, sea birds and marine mammals, the magnificence of the Cortez rivals the Galapagos Islands. The water is warm and the snorkeling is superb. While kayaking we occasionally encounter sea turtles, dolphins and whales. In the desert there are more species of cacti here than anywhere else in the world. Clear nights around desert campfires with a million stars above, the sound of lapping waves from the ocean, and the hum of cicadas, etch deep memories and connections in our human psyches.
