(Translated by Google) Too bad to have missed the sunset over the Fjord but the experience is nice with children.

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful moment with the departure from the splendid Anse Saint-Jean (don't forget to enjoy a soft-serve ice cream at the establishment across the street)... very cool pace, good explanations from the guide. Excellent quality sea kayaks (in fiberglass + spray skirts).

(Translated by Google) Great sea kayaking experience. We did it with our 2 children: 11 and 7 years old, in the evening, starting at 6 p.m. You do need to know how to kayak already, especially to avoid capsizing with the children on board (especially the little one for us). Equipment provided by the guides to stay warm, but risk of getting wet nonetheless. We weren't cold, and we saw a seal several times. Grandiose view. It was just the four of us with the guide, and that is very appreciable!

Not recommended for children under 10 years old

(Translated by Google) I would not recommend the kayak trip to families with young children because they hardly row and suddenly it is quite difficult for the adult alone. In addition, you advise to take a fleece because it can be cold indeed but it would also be advisable to be in swimsuit down because you have to push the boat in the water. We were all jogging (for fear of being cold) and they got soaked in water which meant that we spent the 2 hour walk soaked. The children were cold. I would advise you to add a small insert "what to bring for a kayak trip", in the same way as you did for the whale watching cruise and specify swimsuit at the bottom, fleece at the top and advise against the activity for people under 10 years.
