Multiple open water crossings will provide ample opportunities to sharpen paddling abilities.
All guided trips use and include tandem and triple sea kayaks for safety.
Trip Policies:
“Because of Lake Superior’s power and unpredictability, the National Park Service does NOT recommend the use of small open boats, canoes, open cockpit or sit-upon kayaks, and paddleboards for travel between islands or to the sea caves. A sea kayak is the recommended kayak that should be used in the Apostle Islands.”
