Explore the most beautiful and remote areas of the Great Lakes. These journeys combine learning with exploration — your group travels together as an expedition pod, navigating, preparing meals, and setting up camp side by side.

These are not self-supported trips. Everyone plays an active role: paddling, cooking, cleaning, and helping with logistics. Teamwork is at the core, and success comes from supporting one another every step of the way. This is how expedition behaviour is learned.

Designed for paddlers with some prior experience. If you're newer to sea kayaking, start with our Level 1 courses before joining an expedition. Spaces are limited and fill quickly.

Each expedition is part of the ORCKA Kayak Tripping and Guiding program — certification is available if you want it, but the experience stands on its own.
