Description
Our tour is a great way for someone new to kayaking or new to kayaking in our local area to explore and have an enjoyable time on the water. No experience necessary. Destination depends on the wind and experience of the group. The tours often follow the shoreline around to Saturna Beach/Tompson Park. But other attractive destinations are available, should the wind prevent to explore there.
For longer tours and larger group bookings, please contact us directly.

I highly recommend Fred and Ruth and their company. They’re friendly, professional and made my kayaking experience a good one. Their equipment is top notch and it’s hard to surpass Saturna’s beauty. And because nothing ever REALLY happened unless it’s on social media, Fred took some great photos of me that I posted. Thanks for a lovely experience.
Fred Shadian –
Thank you Kathy!
We look forward to paddling with you again in the future 🙂
Fran –

Fred Shadian –
It was a pleasure paddling with you both.

This was so much fun!
We got to practice falling out of kayak in the cold water.
Fred is an incredible teacher. Super patient and positive. I would go on another trip with Fred again next time I’m in the area.

Great day on the water. Nice to have quality boats to paddle and excellent instruction.
Fred was more than happy to teach at each paddlers level and no one went away without learning. Excellent location also.

We visited Ruth and Fred for a 3 day and 2 nights kayaking, camping and hiking trip.
Ruth and Fred are great kayak instructors and we felt super safe kayaking with these two.
We learned a lot about paddle stroke techniques, seaweeds and wildlife around Saturna.
We saw orcas, eagles, otters and seals. They also provided super delicious and fresh food.
We recommend a trip with Ruth and Fred and would love to visit them again.

A wonderful trip along the borders of Saturna Island in double Kayaks with Fred Shadian and Ruth who were excellent company and teachers.
Fred kept me safe and stable while I could use my camera. Thanks Fred.

Mr. Shadian was very welcoming and helpful on my journey in Kayaking.. at first my girlfriend was afraid, but he was good at putting her at ease and we really enjoyed our time in Saturna Island. I’d definitely come back and would recommend anyone else to try for themselves.
