Adventure Overview

This adventure is safe for beginners and first-time kayakers. It is at low tide and focuses on spending time with the beluga whales in their natural environment. They are quite friendly and will often trail behind you as you kayak!

This approximately 3-hour expedition is recommended for ages 10+ (exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis). We provide all equipment including wet suits, life jackets and neoprene boots. It is best that clothing be close fitting under the wet suits. Many people choose to wear bathing suits or thermal clothing.

Kayaking is an optional excursion subject to weather conditions. Please let us know in advance if you would like to add this to your adventure. It is important to confirm this optional excursion with the front desk when you check in at the lodge in Churchill.

$185 per person, plus applicable tax

What To Bring and What Not To

Luggage needs to be under 50 lbs
Charging cords for laptops, cell phones, tablets.
Warm boots with thick insulation and good grip, such as Sorel and Kamik, are a must.
Gloves should have ample insulation. Gloves may look like ski gloves and should have an upper extension to cover your wrist as well as your hands.
We highly recommend a pair of ski or wind pants to keep heat around your torso and lower body. A jacket alone will not do this.
Long underwear, snug but comfortable fitting outerwear, and a fleece jacket or sweater. Outer clothing should consist of a windproof material, with an attached hood or very warm hat.
We also recommend bringing along a small carry-on bag with your absolute necessities just in case your luggage makes it to Churchill after you do
Spare batteries for each camera type you bring
It is wise to bring a good bug spray that contains DEET as a main ingredient
A good shade hat, sun glasses, binoculars, camera
Thermal under clothing, a toque (a close fitting hat covering your ears), mittens or gloves for the boat tours
Hiking shoes or runners
A wind breaker/sweatshirt/fall jacket for possible cool days, waterproof jacket and pants
Loose fitting clothing, long socks, closed-toed shoes and a long-sleeved shirt and pants for cooler days or bug days
T-shirts and shorts for the summer weather days
