  6. How long will we be active each day?

    It's up to you to decide how far you want to go. Depending on the mileage options you choose and the pace you set you will typically spend 4–6 hours daily engaging in a combination of activities.
  7. How do your leaders support the kayaking and hiking routes?

    The leaders will advise you about the daily schedule each morning. On sea kayaking and hiking activities, leaders accompany the group along with experienced assistant guides.
  8. Do I have to carry any of my own luggage or gear?

    The leaders will transport all luggage between inns, campgrounds and B&Bs. You need only carry food, clothing and personal items desired for that day’s activity.
  9. Who travels with Stan Cook Sea Kayak Adventures?

    The majority of our guests are between the ages of 30 and 60. Older and younger active adventurers are also well represented. Depending on your trip you may meet solo travelers, families and couples. They’ll represent diversity of interests and occupations and share a love of active travel.
  10. How large will my group be?

    The average group size on WNA trips is 8. The maximum number of guests is 12.
  11. Are children welcome on Stan Cook Sea Kayak Adventures trips?

    WNA offers adventures exclusively for families. A diversity of routes and amenities are designed for various ages and abilities. We recommend that you talk to a WNA staff member to determine the best vacations for your family.
  12. If I am traveling alone will you find me a roommate or can I get a private room?

    Our prices are based on double occupancy. If you would like a roommate we can often pair you with one (of the same gender). If no roommate is available, there is no additional charge if you sign up more than 90 days in advance of trip departure date.
  13. Do I bring my own equipment or do you offer rentals?

    We provide all-inclusive services, i.e. WNA will provide all meals, equipment, permits, etc. needed to participate in our adventures. These costs are included in the adventure price. A preferred clothing list is provided. You are suggested to bring these items depending on the activities you choose.
  14. Can I purchase Stan Cook Sea Kayak Adventures gift certificates?

    Yes you can. Gift certificates are available in any amount and can be applied by the recipient toward any WNA vacation, pending availability. To purchase a gift certificate please contact us at 1-888-747-NFLD(6353).
  15. How far in advance do I need to book?

    The further in advance you book the better selection of available departure dates you will find. WNA’s most popular trips, Iceberg Alley and Whales & Walks, usually receiving bookings 4-8 months in advance. Planning early will also help us get the best airfares for you.
  16. Does the information found on this website differ from that found in your catalog?

     Because this site is updated bi-weekly to ensure the most current information, trip dates and other details may differ from those found in WNA printed literature.
  17. What are the chances we will see and come into contact with whales and icebergs?

    If you participate in WNA’s specially designed Whales & Walks and Iceberg Alley adventures you have an extremely good chance of encountering whales and icebergs. As with every outdoor activity Mother Nature plays a large part and it is difficult to predict what will happen in nature. Using past seasons as a guide, whales have been plentiful and thousand year old icebergs float by.
