A paddler’s dream
Kayaking and canoeing in Newfoundland and LabradorWith 29,000 kilometres of coastline, including 9,656 kilometres of bays, breathtaking fjords, guts, and inlets – not to mention the inland rivers, lakes, and ponds – Newfoundland and Labrador is the place for kayaking and canoeing. From the historic capital city of St. John’s to the unspoiled shores of southern Labrador, you can explore waterfalls, abandoned fishing villages, bird colonies, and historical sites.

Dip your paddle metres from breaching whales. Get as close as safely possible to towering icebergs on their journey down the Atlantic from Greenland. Lead an expedition into the mammoth ocean caves lining our shores. Touch our rocky cliffs carved and shaped by the wonders of time and weather, and camp on hidden inlets unreachable by land. You’ll see marine life up-close and personal with puffins and eagles perched overhead.

Our experienced canoe and kayak tour operators are ready to take you across our ponds, rivers, and oceans. They know the land, have the equipment, and love to instruct new paddlers or challenge the experienced. Bond with family and friends among the wonders of the coastal waters of Newfoundland and Labrador – it will be a trip you’ll talk about over and over again.

The short answer is: you can’t. Operators don’t know if people who want to rent are experienced or have enough knowledge of local conditions, especially on the ocean where skill levels need to be higher. Your best bet is to contact an operator and go along on a tour.

Hello,
Just wondering if anyone knows of any good kayaking, canoeing, or white water rafting places in the East Coast. Heading to Deer Lake in August.
Thanks!

For kayak rental in Labrador your best bet is to contact Experience Labrador and see if they rent: petebarrettcraft@gmail.com. Our advice is to go with an operator on a tour. They know the best spots and hidden gems, plus he’s familiar with the conditions and equipped to handle whatever comes up.
