Featured Presentation:

  • Topic: Paddling in Paradise: Sea Kayak Adventures to Remote Tropical Pacific and Caribbean Islands
  • Presenter: Joshua Ladau
  • Presentation Summary: Over the past several years, BASK member Joshua Ladau has gone on five sea kayaking expeditions to tropical destinations that are likely unknown but would be of interest to many paddlers: the Guna Yala (Panama), Sian Ka'an (Mexico), Exumas (Bahamas), Tetepare (Solomon Islands), and East Rennell (Solomon Islands, possibly the first ever kayaking expedition there). These trips have been both unguided and guided, and all have been done on a small budget. This presentation will present a combination of pictures and stories from these adventures, and provide valuable information for anyone who might be interested in visiting these destinations.
