The Great Lakes Sea Kayaking Association is a non-profit organization, founded in 1989, whose aim is to promote and enhance the enjoyment of coastal kayaking in the Great Lakes area. Our members come from all over Ontario with a few from farther afield. They range in age from 18 to 80, and include everyone from novices to experienced expedition paddlers. These trips are organized and run by fellow club members on a volunteer basis.
Members provide their own equipment, food and transportation.
In addition, we hold skill sessions, seminars, workshops, informal slide nights, and an Annual Business Meeting. Our Georgian Bay Committee is working on the long-term preservation of the Bay as a wilderness paddling location for sea kayakers. They have installed privies at a number of Bay campsites, organize annual campsite clean-ups on the Bay, and are working on a paddlers' guide to the Bay. If you share our interest in sea kayaking as a means of exploring our wild and beautiful inland seas the Great Lakes we invite you to join us in the Great Lakes Sea Kayaking Association.
