Kayak & Wild Camping Expedition
The Sea Kayak and Wild Camp Expedition will make best use of the conditions to explore amazing South Devon coastline and estuaries. Our typical route will set off from the heart of Torbay and traverse the stunning coastline of Berryhead & Sharkham Point on Day 1. Exploring sea caves and spotting wildlife before pitching up at a secluded camp & enjoying a hearty meal cooked around the open fire. Enjoy the evening around the fire before a night under the stars on the remote beach. A gentle paddle back the next day to discover all of the sea caves we passed the previous day, keeping our eyes peeled for seals and possibly even the odd porpoise or dolphin if we're lucky!

What our fellow adventurers think...
"Incredible and unforgettable weekend, not only did we have a fantastic guide Richard we also shared the experience with a great small group of people. I was hesitant to book this trip due to the ongoing pandemic, the group size was reduced to 6 people, we were all able to maintain social distancing and our food was individually packed for us. I would highly recommend booking this experience". Camilla July 2020
"Brilliant organisation and brilliant fun. A real adventure. The coast is stunningly beautiful and you sea it in a completely different way from the sea. The night out camping at a remote beach was out of this world. A swim before Ash cooked us supper was so refreshing and then chatting around the campfire was dreamy. Our guide Ash was calm, funny, knowledgable, professional and highly qualified. I would definitely recommend Reach Outdoors". Ali Aug 2020
