Rising Tide Expeditions is based in the beautiful fishing village of Gabarus, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada and offer sea kayaking adventures and education in many unique locations on Cape Breton Island.

Sea kayaking is a great way to experience the outdoors, with ocean air in your lungs and the sun on your face. Seabirds, marine life and shoreline habitat are accessible in a whole new way.

Our guests are young and young-at-heart. We have introduced people aged 2 to 87 years of age to kayaking.  We love our Island and kayaking, and take pride in your comfort and enjoyment of your vacation with us.

No experience necessary on most of our offerings, only an interest in the outdoors. Instruction is provided during your time with us

All meals during our trips are prepared fresh on the beach by your guides from fresh and sometimes local ingredients. You will be impressed by our creations from out of a kayak, with Maritime, Mexican and international flavours. We serve Nova Scotian Wines with supper.

Reservations

Please contact us for more information on any of our offerings, for reservations, or just to talk to us about sea kayaking and traveling Cape Breton. We love our island!
