Kayak Exploration Camp
( Various Locations )
Your child will spend the week kayaking and learning about the different waterways, ecosystems and native wildlife that is specific to each location we paddle! We strengthen their kayaking and paddling techniques, safety, waterway navigation as well as teamwork skills!
This is a unique educational adventure for experienced kids to see the hidden treasures that surround us! We have a set itinerary and lots of fun water activities planned throughout the week while they explore and enjoy the different scenery each day!
Our goal is to teach our youth to love the outdoors while being good stewards of the environment through nature interpretation and education.
