Awesome trip. Getting to Dominica early was fun and then the paddling, snorkeling, dining and time with friends new and old was great. Well organized. Kerry was a fabulous guide to this incredible island.

Guide: Michael G.

This was a wonderful trip in a stunningly beautiful location. Trip leaders Michael Gray, Kerry Alleyne, and Lisa Deziel went over and above to support paddlers on and off the water. Excellent NDK kayaks, superb meals (some prepared by Michael himself), comfortable accommodations, interesting land excursions, ongoing commentary on the island's history and culture as we paddled north, shuttles, early morning coffee...all logistics were handled expertly. If you enjoy sea kayaking, this is a gorgeous place to do it in with experienced, safety-conscious, and fun guides.

Trip: Baja Rock Gardening Trip at La Bufadora

Guide: Michael G.

Bucket list trip: fantastic Big Pacific Water and Big Rocks! Jen Kleck keeps you safe while building your abilities in the most positive way. She is an all time great instructor. Everyone far exceeded their personal expectations. Victor Leon has a very beautiful spot on the bay, and the food was great. February is baby seal time, so many babies and mamas.

The waves were really scary the first few days, but the local guide was able to find sheltered areas where we could paddle. I learned a lot, and was more confident able reading and handling surf and rock features by the end. As always, the food was great!

Trip: Isle Royale Explorer

Guide: Michael G.

We enjoyed 7 nights on Isle Royale with our guides Michael Gray and Lisa Deziel. This was a spectacular trip of some 60 miles along the exposed NE coasts of the island. With the exception of our last day, Lake Superior afforded us placid waters with an abundant sighting of the Common Loon, the Common merganser with chicks, the Bald Eagle, the Merlin, beaver, the Kingfisher, the Cedar waxwing, and a distant sighting of an amphibious moose. Michael’s intimate knowledge of the island’s history, including its past fishing and mining extraction industry, location of moose trails into secluded inland lakes, prized fishing holes and campsites were exceptional. His knowledge of the history, flora, fauna & cultures of the island were very informative & revealing. Our trip was well planned, including our meals which included fresh caught, pan-fried Northern trout and Pike, salads and often a baked desert. Breakfasts were not to be missed! Our small group camaraderie never lacked for a sense of humor, long stories, and the occasional reminder that we need to work as a team.

7 days of kayaking Lake Superior at Isle Royale was amazing. The beauty of both Isle Royale and Lake Superior was incredible. Thank you Michael for guiding us on this trip. We woke up each morning to a beautiful views, great coffee and delicious breakfasts. The days were filled with kayaking, hiking, fishing, and fun. Great meals, including fresh trout and pike. Laughter, friendships, rest, and lake swims filled the evenings. Thank you for the wonderful memories.
