Exploring a new destination by paddling along the shoreline is an ideal way to savor your travels. Join your onboard expedition kayak team to push out into new waters and see what can be discovered. The quiet tranquility that can be experienced only from a kayak is something not to be missed for those with a sense of adventure willing to exercise their arms and open their eyes and minds. Whether viewing ice in the polar regions, sandy beaches with azure water in the tropics, or rural communities, rock cliffs or picturesque scenery in the temperate latitudes, a kayaking outing is always worth it.
Please note: (Dis)embarking the kayaks may take place from the ship, a Zodiac, or other suitable location depending upon operational requirements. A Zodiac follows the kayaks to lend assistance as required. This tour operates weather permitting although rain does not deter us. All kayaking gear is provided. As temperatures and weather conditions can vary, please dress in layers. For polar regions, a waterproof outer layer is provided in the form of a dry suit. Pogie gloves are provided, along with booties and dry bags for your cameras and extra gear. For hot regions we recommend long sleeves and trousers with cooling fabrics to protect your skin from sunburn. Bring a hat, camera and binoculars and wear sunglasses and sunscreen. Please remove all rings, watches, bracelets, and earrings. No prior kayaking experience is required. A briefing and instructions on how to paddle are given before your tour departs. All kayaks are doubles. Maximum weight per kayak (2 persons) is 617lbs or 280kg. Minimum height for participants is 150 cm (5 ft). Guests under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
Due to the nature of Expedition Travel, booking of "OPTIONAL EXPEDITIONS" (Submersibles & Kayaks) is done at a voyage level (Embarkation Day) and not a port level. This helps to facilitate the best possible guest experience. As such, we do not allocate a specific time or day for your booking or activity. This will be decided by the Expedition Leader the evening before, to allow for the most up to date weather and operational information. Your booking is for one departure during your expedition cruise. Your onboard expedition team will assign your date, time, and destination, onboard, taking note of others in your party who may have also booked. To waitlist for specific times or destinations, or to book additional departures, please contact your expedition coordinator once onboard.
