Family-kayaking tours are provided for children with their parents in double kayaks. Young children (3-5 years old) sit in the middle cockpit. Older children sit in the front cockpit, while one of the parents sits at the back of the kayak to maximize paddling efficiency and safety.
All sea-kayak tours include instructions, high-quality kayaks and paddles, water-proof clothing if required, dry bags, as well as the services of a well-trained guide.
Paddle jackets and pants are provided, (even for the 3 years old kids) including water shoes and gloves if required. If you wish to swim in the Saguenay in the summertime, we suggest that you do so in L’Anse-St-Jean.
