Trip Itinerary Soft Adventure journey in an open boat. Trips leave every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday during the months of July and August. We will pick you up at your B&B or Hotel for an 8:30 meeting at the Kayak Shack. We will be packed and on the water by 11am for our journey to the Wonderstrand, Packs Harbour, Pigeon Cove, Prisoner's Island, Dumplin Harbour, and Indian Harbour. Visit the Archaeological dig at Snack Cove. Search for a hidden cache on Hare Island. Have your photo taken inside a rock house. Camp on the sandy shores or on the caribou moss just inside the shore line. In the three days we will journey by open boat in seas where Aboriginal people paddled and sailed for thousands of years as they traded along the North American Coast. We will visit the Wonderstrand, written about in the Viking Sagas, Packs Harbour where there was once a great summer fishery, and camp along the shore lines where archaeological exploration is uncovering artifacts that were left there by our ancestors up to 4000 years ago. At Cartwright island you will see the remnants of a rock house that may have been built by the European visitors or have been there for thousands of years and built by the Aboriginal People. Trip Distance: Approx 90km |
