At CSE our trips are celebrated for their professional guiding, exquisite cuisine, and unbelievable photo opportunities.
From the Atlantic to Pacific Coasts we'll guide you to some of the most exotic, rugged and ancient places in the world.

We offer day tours, multi-day tours, special tours and professional instruction. No prior experience is necessary for taking an active approach to learning about a region, nor is age a limiting factor. However, a love for the outdoors and a desire to experience new and exciting things is recommended.
At CSE emphasis is placed on service, quality, fun, and of course your personal safety. Whichever trip you choose, the staff at Coastal Spirit Expeditions is dedicated to making each trip a once in a lifetime experience. We are here to provide you with a top of the line sea kayak or cycling adventure that is educational and will inspire future adventure travel and a commitment to the preservation of marine and wild life.
All CSE Tour Guides are certified with ACSKG/SKGABC or AECSKO and are well versed in the areas you will be paddling.

QUEEN CHARLOTTE
ISLANDS This
archipelago in western British Columbia is sometimes referred to as the Galapagos of the
Pacific Northwest because of its richly unique biology and ecology. It is a veritable
candy store for the budding and even most seasoned marine biologist and ecologist. The
sheer rugged beauty of the islands pacified by its delicate intertidal zones truly makes
it a place of wonder. Close your eyes as you visit the sacred sites of Guaii Haanas and
you will feel the spirits of the Haida nation, who inhabited these islands over 10,000
years ago. Don't be surprised if you are escorted through islands by a pod of Orcas,
barked at by sea lions or followed by the spirit eagle and raven. This is a land and
seascape full of contrasts, in one moment a sea full of rage, and the next as tranquil and
serene as Valhalla. There is literally no other place on earth like the Queen Charlotte
Islands.
DATES: May 7-17, May 19-29,
COST: $ 1485 incl. tax (includes one night B&B) |

JOHNSTONE STRAIT
Each summer, pods of orcas,
both residents and transients meet in Johnstone Strait to eat, rub, spy hop, breach and
frolic. They are among the most studied, mythical mammals on the planet. As a paddler,
there is not a more exhilarating feeling than being amongst these magnificent giants of
the sea. The area, however, offers a lot more than just the "black fish."
Ancient village ruins of the Kwakwaka'wakw dot the area with one remaining village site,
Mamalilaculla, still standing. It is a region as rich in history as it is in beauty.
DATES: Sept. 3-8, Sept. 10-15
COST: $ 1095 incl. tax |
