www.seakayak.ca In 1985, Ben Miltner established Gulf Island Kayaking (now also known as Galiano Kayaks) as an owner-operated company. Based at Montague Harbour Marina next to Montague Harbour Marine Provincial Park on beautiful Galiano Island, British Columbia, Galiano Kayaks has much to offer: guided kayak tours, both day tours and overnight camping expeditions, kayak rentals, and used kayak and

equipment sales. Since 1987, we have been offering sea kayak tours and natural history & birding tours in Costa Rica weekly from December through April, during B.C.'s winter months.

Imagine paddling along a serene tidal river, the cool water 🌊 flowing beneath you as you glide under branches to spot a heron fishing just inches away. Look up, and you may see monkeys 🐒 playfully swinging through the canopy, only to round a bend and encounter a mother and baby monkey perched quietly on the riverbank.

Picture yourself drifting past a pelican, perfectly still, standing sentinel on a rock in the ocean 🌊. Feel the rhythmic surge of ocean swells gently lifting your kayak 🚣‍♀️. As the day fades, local fishermen cast their nets in the golden light of a breathtaking sunset 🌅.

End the day with a hike through the rainforest jungle 🌳, discovering a pristine beach 🏝️ all to yourself, followed by a candlelit dinner with new friends, sharing stories of the day's adventure.

This is the magic of Costa Rica 🌿, waiting to be explored. Join us for a truly unforgettable experience 🌅 — one that brings you closer to nature, wildlife, and the beauty of the most biodiverse place in the world 🌍 (National Geographic).
