A typical day began with prepping the kayaks and then orienting guests to the safety realities of being on the water for the next seven hours and how we interacted with the bay’s ecosystem.
There is an incredible tidal ecosystem around the islands, home to a diverse range of species including the Blood Star (my favorite). As well, waterfowl, porpoise, otters, and seals were common sites while out on day paddles. Occasionally, whale pods would use the bay as a route.
