Sea-Kayaking in the Gaspe Peninsula, Quebec, Canada
Almost surrounded by water, the Gaspe Peninsula in Canada offers some of the most exciting sea-kayaking trips available in Eastern North America.  Breathtaking scenery, seal rookeries, thousands of nesting seabirds and the magnificence of breaching whales elicit memories that last a lifetime.

Canoeing the Black River, St. Elizabeth

Chiriqui Highlands, Panama
Rafting on the Chiriqui and the Chiriqui Viejo Rivers provide exhilarating rapids and the wild beauty of lush forests. Rio Chiriqui is a Class III river but is not available during the dry season (January to April). However, Rio Chiriqui Viejo is a Class IV river for most of the year.

Rio Chagres, Panama
The Rio Chagres is one of the most important rivers in the world yet remains unknown in spite of it's colorful history and current significance. It is the river that allows the Panama Canal to function. Cruise the Panama Canal and wonder at the engineering marvel, take a boatride to view the flora and fauna of Barro Colorado, an island rainforest in the world's largest man made lake, or raft down its tributary, Rio Piedras to Lago Alajuela. It is as adventurous today as the time when it was first explored by the Spanish conquistadors.

Mountain Villages of the Eastern Black Sea and the Coruh River, Turkey
The Coruh River is ranked among the top ten in the world for white water rafting and kayaking (Grade III-V). Fed by snow melt from the Eastern Black Sea Mountains in north-east Turkey, the Coruh flows through spectacular canyons and narrow, fertile valleys of orchards and rice paddies past ancient ruined castles and churches, all set against a backdrop of magnificent rugged mountains.
