An Evening Paddle with East Coast Outfitters
I can never get enough kayak paddling in. Stuff like work gets in the way. However, I did grab an opportunity to take my two daughters -in-law and head out for the Ladies Night Paddle with East Coast Outfitters recently.

Exploring the Coastline with East Coast Outfitters
Kayaking is one of my favorite things to do, and I do as much as I can-mostly lakes and rivers.

Most assuredly so. East Coast Outfitters staff were helpful and our guide was knowledgeable-we learned so much about the area’s history and geography. All guides are certified by Paddle Canada and trained in Wilderness First Aid. We received a short course of instruction in the fine art of sea kayaking-a good thing because I was NOT …
