THE QUEEN CHARLOTTE ISLANDS – These beautiful, remote islands off the west coast of Canada boast amazing wildlife, wilderness camping, intimidating swells and Haida culture. Shawna Franklin, Leon Somme & Justine Curgenven paddle 500miles around the archipelago encountering humpback whales & 200 year old totem poles.
DUBSIDE – The man-in-black known simply as ‘Dubside’ shares his vision of “commando kayaking” using only public transport, 2 feet and a folding kayak. He also performs impressive Greenland rope gymnastics and joins Warren Williamson for some rough water rolling in Deception Pass.
ROCK HOPPING IN BAJA – Jen Kleck and friends explore the beautiful Pacific coastline of Baja, surfing ocean swells through gaps in the rocks, gliding through caves and getting up-close-and-personal with the worlds second largest blowhole.
LAKE SUPERIOR – The worlds largest freshwater lake is America’s third Ocean. Squeeze through tiny arches and tunnels in the Apostle islands, and paddle under the impressive overhanging multi-coloured Pictured Rocks.
THE BASS STRAIT – Justine Curgenven island hops the 350km between Australia and Tasmania across this notoriously stormy sea. Crossings of up to 12 hours lead to charming and rarely-visited islands.
NEW ZEALAND CIRCUMNAVIGATION – The windswept and surf ridden South island is one of the worlds most challenging coastlines to kayak. Scary surf, a helicopter evacuation, dolphins, albatrosses, 40knot winds, friendly locals and more surf characterise this exciting 67 day, 2400km journey for Justine Curgenven and Barry Shaw.
NORWAY – Paddle up one of the worlds narrowest and steepest fjords, see the first seakayakers to surf the Bulken river wave and join a father and son playing games with their kayaks including jumping from the back deck to the front deck!
