Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if the weather is bad for my trip?
If you are on a multi day trip, we will adjust our route to paddle in sheltered areas. Paddling in the rain can be a wonderful experience when dressed correctly. If we encounter a serious rainstorm or very strong winds and it is unsuitable to be on the water, we will go hiking and tidal pooling, stay in camp and drink warm beverages, play cards, or read a favourite book. Your guides will make sure that everyone is comfortable and happy, regardless of the weather we may encounter.
What should I wear for my tour?
We recommend quick dry shorts or pants (trousers) and a quick dry shirt. Please avoid cotton as it takes a long time to dry and offers poor insulation when wet. Please bring a waterproof jacket, sandals, hat, sunglasses, sunscreen and an extra layer for the boat ride.
What equipment is provided by Hello Nature?
All kayaking equipment, Spray skirts and paddling jacket, 5-litre, 20-litre and 30-litre dry bags per person, Laminated marine charts, MSR Papa Hubba 4-person tents, Hellionx Lite Cot, EXPED Downmate Lite 5 sleeping pad, Helinox Chair, Tarps for kitchen & group sitting area, All kitchen equipment, Toilet Paper, A hand wash station, All safety equipment & a first aid kit
How much kayaking experience is required to join one of your trips?
No previous kayaking experience is necessary. We have designed our trips for both active adventurers and those looking for a more relaxing pace.
Is travel insurance necessary?
While travel insurance is not mandatory, we highly recommend that all guests purchase adequate trip cancellation insurance. Having adequate coverage can really take the stress out of the unforeseen. While helpful for everyone, we especially are encouraging guests from outside of Canada to purchase adequate health insurance to cover non-refundable trip costs due to personal or family illness or accident. For detailed information on insurance coverage, please contact your insurance or travel agent. You will be requested to sign a waiver prior to departing on your trip.
How much paddling will we do?
The paddling pace of the tours depends on our guests, the sea conditions and the weather; Multiday tours typically do 4-5 hours of kayaking each day with rest stops
