Guided Wildlife, Bushcraft and Sea Cave Kayak Safari Enjoy a morning exploring the English Riviera Unesco Global Geopark, where you will paddle through stunning caves and around dramatic rock formations and into remote coves. You will stop on a secluded beach to hunt for fossils, taste a wild foraged marine herb and have a beach fire where you will get to toast marshmallows! Our active seal populations and resident cetaceans move around South Devon and can be observed on many of our tours. Our seals fish and bask in the sun at their favourite haul outs that we pass and observe them from our boats. Bring snacks and water with you, and in the summer months, we recommend you wear shorts and a sports top. In the autumn and spring bring active walking clothes or waterproof trousers if you have them on colder days. Conditions can change, but we outfit you with any technical clothing that you may require.
