Join Southern Sea Ventures for a sea kayak trip of a lifetime! We’ll take you paddling to the world’s most beautiful, pristine and remote destinations. Imagine meandering through an alley of majestic blue icebergs or watching a polar bear stalk a seal in the pack ice. How about paddling alongside towering cliffs where tens of thousands of seabirds return to feed their chicks? Join us as we explore the remains of ancient civilisations, soak in hot springs fuelled by active volcanoes, or visit a remote village to marvel at a timeless inuit culture. If warmer climes best suit your style, we'll snorkel among lush coral reefs and share gourmet appetisers on a secluded beach before a setting sun. Big-wall paddling, camping on deserted tropical islands, uncovering the secrets of archaeological sites and savouring local delicacies are reasons why our paddlers return year after year. We warmly invite you to share in the fun and adventure on our sea kayaking tours.

Our trips feature small groups, professional guides, single and double kayaks and guaranteed awe inspiring experiences!
