DISKO BAY: A UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE Kayaking, Hiking & Whale Watching Expedition Leader: Roger Chandler of Coastal Spirit.
Contact Adriana, for more information and to book your place.
In summer 2019 Roger will be leading, for Explore Expeditions an expedition to Greenland. We are going to Disko Bay in western Greenland on a trip of a lifetime. There will be two groups back to back going from end of June to July. The trip are an exploration of Greenland’s spectacular land and sea environments. We’ll kayak among the magnificent icebergs calved by the largest glacier in the northern hemisphere, spend time whale watching and hike in Greenland’s beautiful tundra area with its delicate flowers and mosses. We’ll finish the trip with a meal at a traditional Inuit restaurant. This time of year is particularly beautiful, as the giant bergs are lit by the magical golden glow of the midnight sun.

We will be based at a campsite and if the weather is super settled we can decide if we do an overnight wild camp. During the last two years we've at least managed two nights wild camping.
You need to be an experienced moderate water paddler who can manage Beaufort winds f4/5 and occasionally stronger. You're also happy paddling a loaded sea kayak for 20km
We meet up on the afternoon of the 30th of April and leave on the morning of the 6th of May 2027. Zoe Robinson and Roger will be delivering the course. Both are advanced coaches and advanced sea kayak leaders.
With Lori, Zoe and Roger as your advanced leaders. We meet on the afternoon of the 6th of June and load our sea kayaks onto 'Lady of Avenel' and kit into our cabins. You need to arrive on the 4th of June. This allows for any disruption with the CalMac ferry and a rest day, after a long drive). We arrive back in Castlebay on the 12th June.
You need to book and arrange your accommodation for the night of the 4/5th June and the 12th June.
There are two hotels, a bunkhouse in Castlebay and a short drive to Wavecrest campsite, which is where Lori, Zoe and Roger will be van camping.
St Kilda here we come!!
We've just been buzzed by two bottlenose dolphins ... 
Great day with Sally working on boat handling, reading the water and its ok to feel uncomfortable.
Cemaes to Bull Bay was perfect, with wind with tide and then wind against by the afternoon so we got a few waves and a nice push along the coast.
It was nice to see Rob again too. Thanks for helping with the shutle! 
Great team and super time on our Shetland Adventure with the tall ship Lady of Avenel Sailing. Otters, Puffins, Orca and MuckleFlugga!
Thanks to Zoe Robinson and Hamish Leslie for their support and inputs.

NRS Europe "There are a number of wonderful things about Roger. He has a very light touch in his coaching, and he's always smiling and encouraging you to relax into the enjoyment of the day"
"I've just completed a two day 4* Sea kayak training course with Roger. Having been coached by Roger in the past, I choose to do this course with Roger because I knew I would get a great deal from the course. My expectations were certainly well and truly met"
"And I'm probably learning more from his mentoring now, as my paddling horizons expand, than ever before. I can't count how many questions I've asked... and he's answered. Roger has the knack of making that suggestion that radically changes your thinking and moves your paddling on in leaps and bounds."
