After 40 years of collecting experiences and relationships around the world, I thought the best way to share these experiences was to offer some one-off adventures that are longer, more in-depth and something to aspire to. These are the kayak expeditions that you always wished you could do. This last season’s Pinnacle Expedition was Greenland and inspired this series. This next season will see us back in Sitka, Alaska to share this amazing rainforest coast on an 11-day trip. These small group trips (6 participant max) will be carefully curated around teams that we feel would truly enjoy each other and add to the experience. We have one space left for next June’s trip from Sitka. Look for Pinnacle trips to Isle Royale (10 days),Tasmania, and Shetland in the future.
Tasmania schedule page teaser: Tasmania Lodge-based kayak trip…One-of-a-kind adventure where you can paddle bouncy water around rocky cliff faces and seal haul-outs and share land with Kangaroos and Wombats all from the comfort of a private lodge.
Explore Tasmania’s wild coastline on a small-group sea kayaking expedition through Maria Island National Park. Paddle clear waters, camp on remote beaches, and encounter wombats, kangaroos, sea mammals, and dramatic coastal scenery on this unforgettable 5-day kayak camping adventure.
Dynamic conditions, a remote lodge base, geographically distinct and culturally interesting population all make the Shetland Islands an amazing place to paddle. We are partnering with our friend Eila Wilkinson to bring this trip to 6 qualified paddlers and three, maybe even four coaches. Fantastic opportunity for ACA Levels 3 and 4 paddlers to up their game and see this amazing semi-Nordic island. This will be an unparalleled opportunity for skill development with a great team and an inspiring backdrop. Check out our registration page for more information.
