Our half day sea kayak tours offer a chance to explore both the harbour and the open ocean. Beginners are very welcome, but a certain level of fitness is necessary for the challenges of open ocean paddling in Northern Cape Breton. The tours are suitable for ages 13 and up only. Tours run Mid July-Sept 1st at 10am.
