Exciting, exhilarating, memorable -- welcome to Expedition Experiences by Seabourn. Zodiac, kayaking or hiking activities enable you to experience the wonders of nature up close; in-depth cultural, ethnographic and archaeological discoveries connect you to the human and natural history of Seabourn's world. Each Expedition is expertly planned, professionally operated, and escorted by skilled expedition staff.
Discover the Falkland Islands from your kayak. Experience the ever-changing Falklands weather—sun, wind, mist—all in one outing. When conditions are good, the calm sea and sweeping coastal vistas create an otherworldly sense of connection and awe. Enjoy views of the abundant birdlife and seabird colonies during your paddle.
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 precipitation 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. Waterproof over-mitts (Pogies) 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, water, binoculars, sunglasses, and sunscreen. All loose items should be secured with leashes, string or shock cord. 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. Ship to ship, the kayak experience is approx. 2 hours in length and with a goal of +/- 75 mins. of actual paddle time.
